This Annual Report covers the first year of
our current Strategy Statement 2019-2021
and reports on our activities during 2019
to advance each of the Commission’s four
strategic priorities:
1. To protect the rights of individual persons
who face the greatest barriers to justice;
2. To influence legislation, policy and
practice;
3. To engage with key organisations to
address discrimination and human rights
abuses; and
4. To raise the quality and broaden the extent
of the dialogue on human rights and
equality issues.
Section five then reports on how we have
ensured good corporate governance
and have delivered on our corporate and
compliance responsibilities during the year
under review.
Finally, in the sixth section we report on our
work to implement the Public Sector Equality
and Human Rights Duty, as required of all
public bodies under Section 42 of the Irish
Human Rights and Equality Commission Act
2014.
