CANADA | Re-watch webinar on leveraging the Venice Principles and UN Resolution to promote Ombudsman institutions

The Venice Principles and the UN Resolution on the role and mandate of Ombudsman and mediator institutions (A/RES/72/186) are informative declarations and authoritative advocacy tools for strengthening Ombudsman institutions around the world.

Whether seeking expanded powers, greater independence, adequate funding, alignment with best practices or protection against threats, these internationally endorsed principles can help make your case. This was discussed in a webinar on Leveraging the Venice Principles and UN Resolution on the Role of Ombudsman to promote and protect Ombudsman organizations, organized by the Office of the Ontario Ombudsman in March 2022.
