Papua New Guinea has officially soft launched its first National Human Rights Policy, marking a significant milestone after 30 years without such a framework. The initiative was undertaken by the Department of Justice and Attorney General (DJAG) and financially supported by the European Union. The policy aims to establish a comprehensive approach to protecting and promoting human rights across the nation. Details regarding access to further information about the policy are restricted to paid subscribers of the Post Courier. This launch signifies a commitment to upholding fundamental rights and freedoms within Papua New Guinea's legal and social structures. The policy’s implementation and impact will be closely watched by national and international observers. Further details on the policy’s specific provisions remain limited due to the paywall.
