66    ANNEXES MARKING 25 YEARS OF ODIHR In 2016, ODIHR celebrated its 25th anniversary. Established by the 1990 Charter of Paris, and originally named the Office for Free Elections, ODIHR has grown over the past 25 years from its first, small office in Warsaw with two members of staff into the leading election observation institution in the OSCE region and an active provider of assistance to governments and civil society in OSCE participating States in promoting the strengthening of democratic institutions and respect for human rights, tolerance and non-discrimination, and the rule of law. For 25 weeks, leading up to the 20th OSCE Human Dimension Implementation Meeting which was held in Warsaw over the last two weeks of September, a social media campaign traced the Office’s growth and highlighted some of the many milestones over the 25 years of its existence as the principal institution supporting the human dimension of security within the OSCE.
