It also works to uphold the fundamental rights of minorities and Muslim communities in non-Member States, in accordance with universally recognized human rights norms and standards.

    The Commission is committed to international rules and standards to ensure professional, objective, and independent performance. Upon their election, Commissioners take a legal oath affirming their commitment to integrity, honesty, and impartiality. They are also prohibited from receiving instructions from any State, including their own, or from any external party.

Its activities extend to international issues affecting both Member and non-Member States. It also places a strong emphasis on cooperation by promoting complementarity and providing added value in the protection of rights.
