Civil Society Alternative Report on the Implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights
Summary: A Haitian civil society coalition's alternative report to the Human Rights Committee, answering the Committee's list of issues point by point.
Key Findings
- Structured as answers to the Committee's list of issues CCPR/C/HTI/Q/1, so it engages the state report directly.
- Signed by a coalition including POHDH, Kay Fanm and Solidarite Fanm Ayisyen (SOFA).
- Domestic organizations rather than international ones, which is what distinguishes an alternative report from an NGO submission.
