The hosts, organizers, and participants of the 14th World Human Rights Cities Forum, which highlighted the rapid shrinking of civic space globally and discussed the efforts of human rights cities, have made the following commitments.
1) To collaborate with all human rights cities, civil society and other relevant stakeholders and actors in various fields to share experiences and best practices for the realization of sustainable democracy, human rights cities and the expansion of civic spaces, in a time of worldwide crisis for democracy and human rights.
2) To cooperate with UCLG-CSIPDHR to advance the “10, 100, 1000 Campaign”,
aiming to engage 1,000 cities and local governments worldwide by 2030 and
to invite them to strengthen the international solidarity of human rights cities,
and reinforce urban practices and civic actions that integrate human rights into
governance.
3) To work with international organizations, including the Office of the United
Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (UN OHCHR) and UNESCO, to
establish local human rights charters, ombudsperson offices, inclusive digital
spaces, civic human rights education programs, community-led projects,
collaborative platforms for public-private cooperation, universal design, and the
creation of healthy, inclusive cities that promote the well-being and social
integration of migrants.
4) To meet again together with international human rights organizations, local
governments, and civil organizations at the 15th World Human Rights Cities
Forum to be held in May next year in Gwangju, the city of democracy and
human rights, to commemorate the 45th anniversary of the May 18
Democratization Movement.
