HRC47: Multilateral action is needed to address the human rights crisis in Cameroon Format Excellencies, We, the undersigned civil society organisations, are deeply concerned over ongoing grave hu­man rights violations and abuses in Cameroon. Ahead of the Human Rights Council’s (“HRC” or “Coun­cil”) 47th ses­sion (21 June-15 July 2021), we urge your delegation to support multi­lateral action to address Cameroon’s hu­man rights crisis in the form of a joint statement to the Council. This statement should include benchmarks for progress, which, if fulfilled, will cons­ti­tute a path for Came­roon to improve its situation. If these benchmarks remain unfulfilled, then the joint sta­te­ment will pave the way for more formal Council action, including, but not limited to, a reso­lution esta­bli­shing an in­vestigative and accoun­tability mechanism.
