The Control Yuan of Taiwan is organizing the 37th Australasian and Pacific Ombudsman Region (APOR) Conference themed “Diverse Practices and Developments in Ombudsperson and Human Rights Work”, scheduled to take place from 3 to 5 September 2025 in Taipei, Taiwan.
Based on the belief of promoting good governance and strengthening human rights values, the 37th APOR Conference will bring together ombudspersons from across APOR, along with distinguished guests, leading experts and academics from Taiwan and around the world. This event will serve as a platform for sharing systems and experiences from various countries, providing new perspectives and concepts, and fostering regional and international connections, exchanges, and collaborations.
The Conference will include the APOR members’ meeting, the International Seminar on Human Rights, and cultural programs. On 4 September, the full-day Seminar will feature three themed sessions: “How to Increase Citizens’ Awareness of the Work and Mission of Ombudspersons,” “The Practice and Implementation of the National Preventive Mechanism,” and “Artificial Intelligence, Human Rights, Democracy and Rule of Law.” These sessions aim to illuminate current innovations, best practices, and challenges in ombudsman and human rights work.
