- Recommendation
With regard to the issuing of a standing invitation to all Special Rapporteurs, the delegation clarified that Angola was committed to reinforcing its cooperation with the international human rights mechanisms. In the last few years, the Government had invited the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders, Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief, and the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention. Also, two former United Nations High Commissioners for Human Rights visited Angola. The Government intends to extend invitations to the Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants and the Special Rapporteur on adequate housing as a component of the right to an adequate standard of living, and on the right to non-discrimination in this context.
