ODIHR was established in Warsaw by the Charter of Paris for a New Europe (1990). Poland has participated in financing its premises in accordance with a general practice in the relations between a host country and an international organisation.

The fact that ODIHR has its premises in Warsaw consolidates Poland’s central position in a debate on human rights and democratic transformation.
