IFE is an independent, non-governmental organization committed to promoting and protecting human rights in Eritrea.

* Be a platform which diffuses confirmed and verified information on Eritrea; and
* Build dynamic partnerships.

Values:
* Transparency and accountability;
* Dynamic partnership;
* Human rights and justice; and
* Expertise

IFE is composed of a general assembly and an advisory council. The general assembly is constituted by all the members of IFE who enjoy a voting power on specific aspects of the organization. The advisory council is composed of experts on international law, experts on Eritrea and on asylum policies in Switzerland.
