The South African Human Rights Commission (“the Commission”) will be hosting a multisectoral stakeholder meeting on the promotion of human rights with a specific focus on civil and political rights – the right to vote and the right to citizenship under the theme: “The Impact of Lack of Documentation on the Right to Vote.”
The Commission has identified different stakeholders, including media houses such as Lokuhle Commercial Radio Station, to be part of deliberations during the meeting and pursue partnership with media houses and opportunities for signing of Memoranda of Understanding.
