AFRICAN UNION African Commission on Human & Peoples’ Rights PRESS RELEASE
The Secretariat of the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACHPR) wishes to express its gratitude to all its partners and the Government of The Gambia for their tireless collaboration and support in the activities commemorating the African Human Rights Day (21st October) and the 20th Anniversary of the African Commission.
The Secretariat expresses its heartfelt thanks to all those who took part in the various activities, ranging from a march-past, road-race, lecture and soccer tournament for lower basic schools that began on October 15th and ended on 21st October. It is hoped that we all would build on the momentum gained to further the human rights culture agenda in the African continent.
POSTPONED HUMAN RIGHTS WORKSHOP FOR WEST AFRICAN JOURNALISTS
The Secretariat regrets that one of the activities planned (Human Rights Workshop for West African journalists) that should have taken place on 19 and 20 October 2007 in collaboration with the Open Society Initiative for West Africa (OSIWA), was called off due to financial constraints. The Workshop, however, will still be held in Banjul, The Gambia, as soon as the required funding has been secured.
