Over the past years Extraterritorial State Obligations (ETOs) in the area of economic, social and cultural rights have shown their growing importance in a number of policy fields  – for human rights beyond borders. ETOs show that international regulatory issues can be framed in terms of international human rights law – and this could strengthen the respective cases and campaigns in these fields.

Every two years European members of the ETO Consortium and guests meet for a regional conference. The 2017 conference will take place in Brussels on September 28-29.
