Research

Under Article 20 of Human Rights Commission Act, one of the responsibilities of Human Rights Commission of Maldives is to carry out research on human rights. Thus, HRCM undertakes various research projects to assess issues and situations of national importance from a human rights perspective each year.
The objective of most research conducted in this regard is to identify challenges for the government and other parties in respecting, protecting and fulfilling human rights in respective sectors or issues and to propose recommendations to relevant authorities on how to mitigate the situation.
