Testimony:
"My participation in the 59th session of the ACHPR provided an opportunity for ACAT CI to advocate at the regional level for an improvement in the detention conditions in Côte d’Ivoire.
All the concerns raised by ACAT CI were taken up by the Commission in the recommendations formulated during the review of our country at that session."
Francis Koné, ACAT Côte d’Ivoire
