Americas: Williams Institute partners with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights
 This month, the Williams Institute signed a five-year cooperation agreement with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) to engage in joint activities that advance the rights of LGBTI people throughout the Western Hemisphere. The IACHR is an independent institution of the Organization of American States (OAS). IACHR’s Special Rapporteurship on the Rights of LGBTI Persons has authority to investigate human rights violations and make recommendations to OAS member states on measures to promote the rights of LGBTI persons. Our new partnership with IACHR will encompass a range of activities including research, data collection, and technical assistance. Learn more about IACHR |
