One of the most significant actor in this field is NEKI / Másság Foundation, which releases a so called ‘White Booklet’ (containing the summaries of organisation’s complaint cases), which is another unique source of information for human rights activists, lawyers and researchers. This organization also provides awareness raising trainings for different groups of professionals (e.g. patient right representatives) and uses innovative methods for sensitivity and consciousness raising (e.g. theatre plays for youngsters on discrimination ). ---------------------------------------------- |
