Portugal is generally considered as successful in upholding the civil liberties and protecting the human rights of its citizens.[1] Portugal has proved to be determined in promoting and respecting human rights at an international and national level.[2] The country's minister of Justice as of September 2018, Francisca Van Dunem, said that Portugal has had "a good track record" on human rights but violations still do persist.[3]
Portugal is a member state of the European Union and therefore its citizens are protected by its Charter of Fundamental Rights.[4] In addition to being a member of the European Union, Portugal is also a member state of the United Nations and has signed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.[5]
