Human Rights House Voronezh was established in Russia in 2009, and in 2011 became a part of Human Rights House Network.

It is a vital location that provides a space for human rights organisations, activists, lawyers, psychologists, and educators, many of who work voluntarily.

It hosts seminars, lectures, discussions, and events, and offers consultation to local people providing help for victims of human rights violations.

In addition, the House promotes information on human rights, and is engaged in civic education for government officials, employees of NGOs, and activists.

HRH Voronezh performs active human rights work in the region and has good relations with relevant state and municipal bodies, such as the local ombudsperson office.
