About us. Who we are and what we do
The Global Committee for the Rule of Law “Marco Pannella” (GCRL) was founded by the late Hon. Marco Pannella, leader of the Nonviolent Radical Party Transnational Transparty (NRPTT), in March 2016. He appointed Ambassador Giulio Maria Terzi di Sant’Agata President and Matteo Angioli Secretary General.Up to his final days, Mr. Pannella devoted his entire life to strengthening of the rule of law, serving as Honorary President of the Global Committee. Today the GCRL is named after him to preserve his memory. The aim of the GCRL is the promotion of the Rule of Law and universal human rights through the advancement of the Right to Know.
The logo of the GCRL is inspired by the seal of the Magna Carta signed in 1215 in the vicinity of Runnymede, at Windsor, England. The document established the principle that nobody, including the king and his government, were not above the law.
Our Mission
The aim of the Global Committee for the Rule of Law is to tackle the erosion of the Rule of Law affecting many countries across the world and to promote the full affirmation of human rights worldwide, in continuity with the work Marco Pannella had devoted his entire life to.
The Global Committee advocates the recognition of the right to know as a core element of the Rule of Law: an ecosystem of accountability instruments affecting all stages of the decision-making process, and capable of guaranteeing the same rights to all citizens and ensuring that their freedoms and rights are effectively protected.
