28 April 2021

On 28 April 2021, a videoconference meeting of the IPU Standing Committee on Democracy and Human Rights was held in preparation of the 142nd Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union.

Debate was held on the overall theme of the 142nd Assembly of the IPU“Overcoming the pandemic and building a better tomorrow: the role of parliaments”. Democracies everywhere already faced serious challenges before the COVID-19 pandemic. Those challenges have without doubt multiplied significantly nowadays. As political leaders, parliamentarians have a responsibility to take action to mitigate the effects of the pandemic on democracy and human rights. The interactive debate is an opportunity to exchange experiences on how parliamentarians are approaching the challenges, and to draw out lessons of common interest.

The online meeting was attended by the Member of the Standing Commission of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly of the Republic of Belarus on Human Rights, National Relations and Mass Media Maria Vasilevich.
