Organizer: Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative Description: Articles on the Right to Know Day 2005 were published across the Maldives: It's International "Right to Know Day", Dhivehi Observer news, Sep. 28, 2005 Freedom of Information lies at the root of the rights discourse. Failure of the State to provide access to information or State suppression of information can lead to the most egregious forms of human rights violations. The Right to Information (RTI) is fundamental to the realisation of rights as well as effective democracy, which requires informed participation by all. CHRI educates the public about the value of RTI and advocates at policy level for guaranteed access to information. More articles in the Dhivehi Observer: 1.
