Abstract

The International Conference on the Right to Public Information aimed to advance the right of access to information in Africa. It identified challenges and potential solutions specific to Africa; brought together stakeholders to enhance a regional community of practice; encouraged multi-stakeholder national clusters to advance the right of access to information in their countries; and disseminated regional findings and a plan of action. The African Regional plan of action provides a blueprint for the regional and international community, states, and non-state actors in the promotion and establishment of the fundamental human right of access to information.
