Pursuant to Article 70 of the European Border and Coast Guard Regulation, Frontex established a Consultative Forum on Fundamental Rights. The tasks of the Consultative Forum are to assist the Executive Director and the Management Board with independent advice in fundamental rights matters.
The current Forum is composed of 15 members and headed by two chairs elected by its members for a specific term. The work of the Consultative Forum is undertaken in a spirit of transparency, mutual respect, informed participation and collegiality.
Following the expiry of the mandate of the current Consultative Forum members on 31st December 2019, the Frontex Management Board decided to launch a public call for applications for civil society organisations. The civil society organisations will be selected on the basis of eligibility and selection criteria.
