The 3rd Agribusiness and Human Rights in Southeast Asia workshop brought representatives from National Human Rights Institutions from Burma, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, and Timor Leste together with representatives from supportive civil society organizations to assess developments in safeguarding human rights in the agribusiness sector and develop an action plan for effective State-level enforcement of these rights. The August 7-9 workshop, held in Bangkok, Thailand, introduced the Montien Resolution calling on Southeast Asian countries to establish their own independent Human Rights Commissions in line with international law, and highlighting the non-existence of Human Rights Commissions in Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Lao PDR, Singapore, and Vietnam. This kind of collaboration and cooperation in the region has the potential to increase implementation of international standards and norms in addressing human rights and bolster the ability of watchdog organizations, such as the ASEAN Inter-governmental Commission on Human Rights, to monitor and enforce human rights frameworks.
