The Annual Human Rights Training is a newly established component under the framework of the Informal ASEM Seminar on Human Rights series. It helps in promoting mutual understanding and cooperation on human rights issues in ASEM constituencies. The topic of the first training is “Human Rights and Disabilities“.
Hosted by the Indonesia Association of People with Disabilities (Perkumpulan Penyandang Disabilities Indonesia), the inaugural training will take place over 3.5 days from 24-27 July 2017, in Jakarta, Indonesia. It targets representatives from ASEM governments, ministries or departments, and national and regional human rights institutions working on human rights and the rights of persons with disabilities. Limited places are available for civil society organisations working on the implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN CRPD).
