Association for Citizens Rights and Environmental Protection

Rights and environment. One responsibility.

ACREP connects the protection of human dignity with the protection of the place in which we live. A fairer society requires aware citizens, accountable institutions and a healthy environment.

Our mission

Act where a right risks becoming invisible.

ACREP was founded as a nongovernmental, nonprofit organization committed to social solidarity and to opposing every form of discrimination.

The historical pages of acrep.eu and acrep.it reported initiatives concerning vulnerable people, health, justice, migrants, children, climate and renewable energy. This new website preserves that material, organizes it and makes its historical context clear.

Five directions

Citizenship that does not stand aside.

Informing, raising awareness, calling institutions to account and building a culture of respect: this is where ACREP’s path begins.

  1. 01

    Rights and non-discrimination

    Equal dignity regardless of physical, social, economic, cultural, religious, generational or sexual status.

  2. 02

    Justice and detention

    Fair proceedings, reasonable timeframes, humane prison conditions and attention to miscarriages of justice.

  3. 03

    Accessible health

    Access to care must not depend on income, birthplace or the ability to overcome administrative barriers.

  4. 04

    Migration and protection

    Reception, humanitarian corridors, asylum and dialogue between States in place of walls, violence and neglect.

  5. 05

    Environment and energy

    Public awareness, research, renewable energy and development compatible with future generations.

An integrated view

People at the centre. The planet around them.

Protecting rights also means protecting the environmental conditions that make a healthy, free and dignified life possible.

RIGHTS / 01

From dignity to practical action

Children, detainees, women affected by violence, migrants and discriminated communities: protection begins by making visible what is ignored.
