Consumers Protection is fighting for consumers rights since 2003, through the project „Useful Info – Emergency telephone numbers from around the world”.

Consumers Protection has been dedicated to safeguarding consumer rights since its establishment in 2003, primarily through the strategic initiative known as “Useful Info – Emergency Telephone Numbers from Around the World.” In today’s dynamic landscape marked by heightened population mobility, both within the European Union and across the global stage, diverse situations and contexts frequently arise where citizens seek guidance and assistance. In light of this evolving scenario, Consumers Protection extends its supportive arm through the impactful “Emergency Telephone Numbers from Around the World” project.

At Consumers Protection, our core focus is on you, the consumer. The sphere of consumer protection extends its influence into virtually every sphere of life, underpinning myriad activities. In this context, it is imperative to grasp the essence of consumer protection, understanding its legislative framework, the fundamental principles and rights that underlie this vital endeavor, and the diverse ways in which consumer protection manifests across various domains.

Consumer protection transcends conventional boundaries, encompassing vital aspects such as the quality of the air we breathe, the safety of the water we consume, the integrity of the food we rely on, and the reliability of the automotive repair facilities we entrust with our vehicles. Its sphere of influence further extends into broader arenas, including environmental stewardship, energy management, preservation of historical heritage, and fostering cultural diversity. Given its expansive reach, consumer protection is anchored in well-defined principles that serve as our guiding pillars.

it is imperative to underscore that consumer protection transcends the realm of mere legislation, rights, and responsibilities. It embodies a broader spectrum of values, encompassing well-being, sound judgment, ethical conduct, morality, and mutual respect. At its core, consumer protection fosters an environment of mutual respect among various stakeholders, including merchants, economic entities, producers, importers, and the ultimate beneficiaries, our valued consumers.

In recognition of the multifaceted nature of consumer protection, a dedicated annual event has garnered global attention. World Consumer Rights Day, observed on the 15th of March each year, serves as a poignant reminder of the compelling need for bolstered consumer safeguards. It beckons a collective commitment to adopt a fresh, proactive perspective whenever the rights of consumers stand in jeopardy.

Through our international initiative aimed at streamlining information access in the era of global digitization, we offer a consolidated platform that grants consumers worldwide direct access to an array of emergency and essential contact numbers. This initiative extends its reach to consumers across diverse regions, including Europe, South and East Asia, Africa, the Americas, the Middle East, the Caucasus, and Central Asia, ensuring they can readily connect with vital services such as Consumer Protection, Ambulance, Fire Brigade, Tourist Information, Police, Gendarmerie, Child Protection, Environmental Protection, and more.
