What Are National Human Rights Institutions?

ARASA in collaboration with the Network of African National Human Rights Institutions (NANHRI), under the Africa Regional Grant on HIV: Removing Legal Barriers, facilitates regional learning spaces for evidence based discussions, peer-to-peer learning and sharing of experinces between National Human Rights Institutions and Civil Society Organisations. Under this program, NHRIs are encouraged to:
Engage in health and human rights issues;
Support the promotion and protection of the rights of key populations, women and children; and
-Engage in advocacy, research, litigation, and law review and reform for the removal of legal barriers.
ARASA encourages you to know, engage and support your NHRI.
