The LARRGE Team

 

The  Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights (BIM) is an independent, academic human rights research and service institution. It was founded in 1992 under the umbrella of the Ludwig Boltzmann Association, a leading Austrian research association named after the physicist and philosopher Ludwig Boltzmann (1844-1906).

The primary focus of the BIM is on research activities in the field of human rights on the national, European and international level. BIM staff is also engaged extensively in human rights teaching and training. It is the institute’s main objective to offer a link between academic research and legal practise. Through co-operation with international, European and national institutions – like UN, OSCE, CoE, EU, ICTY, Austrian and foreign ministries – as well as other human rights research institutes and NGOs, the BIM strives to provide relevant studies, analysis and data on human rights issues in  international, European and national law, politics, education and the media.
