The CIRDI 2024 campaign has developed a number of practical tools and publications to support States and civil society organizations in their efforts to ratify and implement the Inter-American Convention Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, and Related Forms of Intolerance (“CIRDI”).
CIRDI: The Convention
The full text of the Inter-American Convention Against Racism is available here in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
CIRDI Article by Article
“CIRDI Article by Article” is an easy-to-read summary of the Inter-American Convention Against Racism’s provisions, presented in bullet points to summarize the take-away message of each provision and make them more accessible.
This tool is for both State Parties and non-parties to CIRDI to support domestic efforts to prevent and respond to racism, racial discrimination, and related forms of intolerance. It is available in here in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
CIRDI Ratification Toolkit
This toolkit compiles information on the procedures required to ratify or accede to CIRDI and on important matters to consider before and upon ratification/accession.
It is intended for State officials to be fully aware of why, when, and how to sign, ratify or accede to CIRDI, and includes several annexes with materials answering the most common questions raised by States.
The toolkit is available in here in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
