Reports to CHOGM
The Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) is held every two years and is the key event on the Commonwealth calendar. Each time a different theme is selected for the Meeting and the Heads of Government issue statements on this theme, as well as setting policy directions for the Commonwealth. As such, CHOGM is a major target of CHRI's advocacy work. It provides an opportunity to advocate to the Commonwealth to go further on its human rights commitments.
Every two years CHRI produces a report on an issue of human rights concern in the Commonwealth. Every report follows a different, critical theme related to human rights that both reflects and challenges the global debates on human rights. The reports include recommendations to the Commonwealth to further protect and promote human rights.
