The Arab Standing Commission for Human Rights (PAHRC) approved, on Tuesday at an extraordinary meeting in Cairo, a proposal from the Kingdom of Morocco to merge into a single document the “Arab Plan for Human Rights Education” and the “Arab Plan for the Promotion of the Culture of Human Rights”.

Thus, the new document will be called the “Arab Plan for Human Rights Education and Awareness-raising”.

The Commission also instructed the Moroccan authorities concerned to prepare the draft unified plan and to submit it to the General Secretariat of the League of Arab States for its dissemination to the Member States.

During a recent virtual meeting of government experts, Morocco suggested merging the two plans, and urged member states to prepare action plans as well as a clear system for monitoring and evaluation.

The Moroccan delegation, which participated in the meeting, considered that this proposal is in line with the content of the World Program for Human Rights Education and aims to ensure sustainability and complementarity between the different initiatives which the Member States have joined.

The Moroccan vision is also inspired by the Sustainable Development Plan for 2030, particularly with regard to the acquisition of the knowledge and skills necessary to contribute to the objectives of sustainable development.

The aim is to promote sustainable lifestyles as well as the values ​​of human rights, gender equality, peace and rejection of violence, global citizenship, appreciation of cultural diversity and the contribution of culture to sustainable development.
