CESR has conducted work around the Equatorial Guinea's Universal Periodic Review Process during 2009 and 2010. Among other activities, CESR co-organized a side event: "Human Rights in Equatorial Guinea: taking actions on the UPR recommendations" in March 2010. We also presented a joint oral statement with Abogac??a por un Desarrollo Sustentable (ADesaD) during the HRC session about how Equatorial Guinea, one of the richest countries per capita in sub-Saharan Africa, has a duty to fulfil its human rights obligations, including economic and social rights.
