Activities of the Commission PDF Print E-mail

Since its establishment the Commission has demonstrated an expansive capacity to tackle issues of human rights through various activities, ranging from public enlightenment and education, investigation of complaints, mediation and conciliation, conflict resolution, peace building, research advocacy and training programmes on contemporary issues in the field of human rights. These were given effect through an effective complaint treatment mechanism, regular hosting of lightenment seminars, workshops, rallies and continuous reengineering of our strategies which culminated in the National Action Plan (NAP) on Human Rights as a mark of government's commitment towards the promotion and protection of human rights. The NAP is expected to be a benchmark on which Nigeria's Human Rights records can be judged.
