Comparative Law Research


CHRI regularly monitors developments across Commonwealth member States for news of RTI law drafting processes. Given its reputation CHRI is often approached by both Governments and civil society organisations for assistance with the process of writing up the provisions of their RTI legislation. In addition to being deeply involved in the law-making exercise in several countries CHRI has contributed to the process of developing model ATI legislation for the Commonwealth and the African Union.
