Abstract

This paper analyses the national mechanism for the protection of human rights in the Republic of Moldova. It examines the constitutional provisions governing fundamental rights and freedoms and provides an in-depth analysis of the institutional framework for the protection of human rights established by the Constitution of the Republic of Moldova.In a global context, the Republic of Moldova has ratified the most important human rights instruments. Its Constitution reiterates the list of fundamental human rights and freedoms adopted from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Human Rights Covenants. Following completion of the screening process for accession to the European Union (EU), Moldovan authorities have undergone both internal and external evaluations of the effectiveness of the national human rights protection mechanism. It generates continuous initiatives to align the national legal framework with the requirements of the EU’s acquis.The research is based on a questionnaire containing clear guidelines for a comprehensive approach to the national human rights protection system. The article was developed to support a comparative analysis of national human rights protection systems by examining constitutional frameworks, the definition and implementation of fundamental rights, and the institutional and procedural mechanisms that ensure their protection.
