Lesotho continues to face delays in implementing outstanding United Nations human rights recommendations, officials said at a workshop aimed at identifying barriers to progress and developing measures to address them.

Nthabiseng Sekokotoana, speaking on behalf of the Deputy Attorney General, urged authorities to accelerate implementation of the recommendations, highlighting the need to translate international commitments into concrete action.

Mathabo Pama, Director of Disability Services, said the workshop should identify the reasons behind implementation delays and establish practical measures to address them.

Makatleho Molotsi also emphasised the importance of upholding universal human rights, according to the workshop statement.

The discussions covered recommendations linked to four international conventions: the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance, and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women.
