A European association for rights and freedoms
ASSEDEL (L’Association européenne pour la défense des droits et des libertés) is a non-profit organisation, governed by its statutes, in accordance with articles 21 to 79-III of the local Alsace Moselle Civil Code relating to associations.
The organization guides and supports victims of human rights violations.
ASSEDEL is registered with the European Parliament (TR ID 417036145445-39) and recognised in France as a general interest organization, so gifts and membership fees qualify for a tax reduction.
