Ombudsman
The establishment of the Ombudsman Institution is considered to be another achievement in promotion and protection of human rights and freedoms in Tajikistan. It’s worth reminding that according to the Tajik President Emomali Rakhmon’s decree dated May 27, 2009, Zarif Alizoda was appointed the ombudsperson for Tajikistan.
There is a number of public organizations currently operating in Tajikistan seeking to promote human rights and freedoms, improve legislation, adjust it in accordance with international standards on human rights and conduct various events aimed at distribution of legal information on human rights.

1. Public organizations in Tajikistan: principal directions of activity, opportunities and resources;
2. Principle directions of activity of the Ombudsman in Tajikistan;
