Common Foreign and Security Policy

Alex: Alex moved page Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) to Common Foreign and Security Policy

The '''Common Foreign and Security Policy ('''CFSP''') has a range of tools that can be used to promote human rights and democratisation:

• Common Strategies, common positions and joint actions 

• Démarches and declarations 

• Dialogue and consultations with third countries 

• Guidelines on EU policy towards third countries on specific human rights themes 

The Policy has developed gradually over many years, enables the EU to speak and act as one in world affairs. 
Acting together gives the EU's 28 members far greater clout than they would have if each pursued its own policies.

The '''non-governmental organisations''' ('''NGOs''') play a crucial role in protecting human rights world wide. They are especially important when it comes to obtaining information (through surveys, research, etc.), identifying priorities and giving citizens an opportunity to make their voice heard. There is a number of NGO networks that fight for this mission on a European level such as the European confederation for Relief and Development (CONCORD), the European Network of Foundations for Democracy Support, the European Network of Independent Political Foundations in Democracy Promotion and Development Cooperation or the Human Rights and Democracy Network. NGOs have continuously asked the EU and its Member States to step up and engage more in the fight for the promotion of universal human rights.
