1.  EMDHR is beyond ethnicity, regionalism and religion
EMDHR is a collective action in which individuals join to address shared goals like the respect of rule of law and other freedoms. Its main focus is to establish institutional “commons” which advocate for those interests that are inadequately expressed by political parties or state. EMDHR as a movement is a public formation whose purpose is to manage matters of common concern without resort to state and political parties.

2.  EMDHR stands apart from the state
EMDHR is established as a realm of consent through which citizens may choose to accept or reject policies without resorting to violence. It came in to being neither because actors perceive a material advantage nor because they are motivated by commitment to a political value.

3.  EMDHR is distinguishable from political parties
Political parties as a political society refer to institutions through which social actors seek to win and exercise state power. These institutions–which are located in society and not in the state – specialize in partisan political contestation and in construction of governing coalitions.
EMDHR on the other hand as the expression of civic interests does not extend its efforts to gain and exercise control over state power.
