PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC - The Association of Caribbean Media Workers (ACM) has written Caribbean Community (Caricom) Secretary-General, Irwin La Rocque, in an attempt to discourage Caribbean participation in a March meeting in Ecuador to discuss the future of the Inter-American human rights system.
The ACM says “it is our view that this meeting of signatories, which is not based on a conventional legal standard, is inconsistent with the process that has been developing for more than two years within the Organization of American States (OAS).”
The OAS has set a March 22 deadline for members to present proposals for reforming the system. This follows a debate on the matter launched in 2011 and followed by the establishment of a working group within the OAS.
