About

Founded in 2014, Jogaink Egyesület is a non-profit association based in Kolozsvár, Romania working on justice & legal aid, education, human rights.

Jogaink Egyesület is a Hungarian-language association based in Transylvania, Romania, founded in February 2014. Its volunteers, who include lawyers, legal scholars and law students, provide free legal aid to Hungarians who face disadvantage or legal violations because of their Hungarian identity or mother-tongue use. The association also promotes legal education for young people, most notably through the annual Jogi ki mit tud? competition for high school students, and publishes practical legal guides and an online legal forum. It is supported by Hungarian foundations such as the Bethlen Gábor Alapítvány.
