The Commission that will visit Colombia will be made up of representatives of Costa Rica and Guatemala to the MESICIC, and from the Department of Legal Cooperation of the OAS Secretariat for Legal Affairs, as the Technical Secretariat of the MESICIC. The Commission will meet with representatives of the main oversight bodies of the country, in order to gather on-the-ground information regarding the manner in which they carry out their functions, which will be input for the drafting, consideration and adoption of the report on Colombia that the MESICIC will adopt in September of this year. Similarly, it is anticipated that this Commission will meet with Colombian civil society organizations, private sector representatives, professional associations and academics, in order to address topics related to the issues being analyzed in the Fourth Round of the MESICIC. The MESICIC is a cooperation mechanism between States, with the participation of civil society organizations, established within the framework of the OAS, in which the legal/institutional framework of each country is reviewed for suitability with the Inter-American Convention against Corruption as well as the objective results achieved therein. For further information on the MESICIC and the Fourth Round of Review, please visit the Anticorruption Portal of the Americas |
