Meet the Candidates for the IACHR

In June 2025, 3 of the 7 seats on the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) will be renewed. To promote transparency and participation in the process, CEJIL, DPLF, IFEX–ALC, Race and Equality, RFK Human Rights, and WOLA will be hosting a dialogue between civil society and candidates to the IACHR.

This hybrid event aims to hear from the candidates running for the 2026–2029 term, exploring their visions and proposals in response to the structural and current challenges facing the Inter-American Human Rights System. Questions from registered civil society organizations may be submitted until Monday, May 12. Questions must be addressed to all candidates collectively (not to a specific person). Due to time constraints, only one question will be selected and posed to the candidates during the event.
