12.05.2016 18:00 – 20:00

The right to life is often described as a “supreme” or “foundational” right. This panel of experts and diplomats will explore current challenges and new developments concerning this right, in normative instruments, jurisprudence, law and practice at national, regional and international levels. Panelists will address the recent adoption by the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights of a General Comment on the Right to Life, as well as the development of a General Comment on the same topic by the UN Human Rights Committee.
