The ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission On Human Rights or AICHR, is the regional mechanism on human rights and its ‘Terms Of Reference’ is a fundamental document, a governance code which outlines AICHR’s mandate and functions. The Terms Of Reference are up for review later this year.
MARUAH believes that a Public Consultation is necessary to improve and strengthen AICHR as a human rights institution and to take stock of AICHR’s progress in strengthening human rights within the ASEAN Community.
This is also an opportunity to become more familiar with ASEAN and its processes, to make a commitment to ASEAN for our own national interests, for our community and the people in the region. For some do not be afraid of ASEAN or ponder on its relevance. Treat this as an introduction to ASEAN if need be.
Participation in this Public Consultation is free and all are welcome.
