The fourth Human Dimension Implementation Meeting was shorter and more focused than previous ones, while attracting the highest number of participants so far - over 700, including a large number of NGO representatives.
The meeting, which took place from 26 October to 6 November, reviewed the implementation of human dimension commitments in all 55 OSCE participating States.
Side events included an informal meeting with the OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media and discussions on freedom of religion, gender issues, prevention of torture and national policies on Roma and Sinti, allowing for more open dialogue and discussion of follow-up activities in these areas.
