Côte d'Ivoire: Human Rights

(asked on 30th March 2017) - View Source

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what is their latest assessment of the human rights situation in Côte d’Ivoire.


This question was answered on 11th April 2017

The Government of Cote d’Ivoire is committed to making progress in the field of human rights with the support of UN technical assistance. We are aware of the positive work of the National Commission for Human Rights in Côte d’Ivoire (CNDHCI), especially on national reconciliation, an area which remains important for community and social cohesion. The United Nations Operation in Côte d'Ivoire (UNOCI) mission is coming to an end later this year with work being handed over to the Government of Cote d’Ivoire. We expect the Government to maintain a strong focus on the promotion and protection of human rights, and on the process of reforming the security sector.
