IuRe: the only Czech digital rights organization
Iuridicum Remedium (IuRe) is a Czech non-profit organization founded more than twenty years ago.
IuRe implements the Legal Aid programme, in which we provide counselling to people with social problems related to debt, housing or work. In the Digital Freedoms programme, we address issues of data abuse, privacy, or biometric identification. In recent years, our big theme has been digital exclusion and the right to analogue.
We are a member of EDRi, the biggest European network defending rights and freedoms online.

Films about our activities
In a short video our Jan Vobořil and sociologist Petr Lupač talk about digital exclusion. What specific cases of forced digitalisation have we encountered? Check it out (end of 2023)
We made a documentary movie about digital divide and digital exclusion, Digital Dissidents, which is available online with English subtitles. You can see it here (the premiere was in April 2022).
One of our themes is cash protection. See why we care about it in our crowdfunding campaign video. Watch it here (December 2022).
