National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) Comparative study of the NHRIs at a European and international level Roxani Fragkou, Ph.D., Scientific Associate of the GNCHR ISBN 978-960-622-937-4 Abstract: National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) constitute an important in- novation in global governance, marking a significant step in the implementation of international human rights law in domestic legislation, by essentially bridging the gap between international human rights standards and national law. The present and scientifically original monograph aspires to shed light on aspects and param- eters concerning the composition, operation and role of NHRIs, while at the same time triggering the development of Greek theory and bibliography in the specific field which so far has not been explored by scholars of human rights Law in Greece.
