First Summit: Miami (1994)

Plan of Action

Promoting and Protecting Human Rights: Great progress has been made in the Hemisphere in the development of human rights concepts and norms, but serious gaps in implementation remain. While courts ultimately have the responsibility for enforcing legal rights and obligations, reforms in other institutions are needed to contribute to the further development of a climate of respect for human rights. There must also be universal access to justice and effective means to enforce basic rights. A democracy is judged by the rights enjoyed by its least influential members.
Governments will: Guarantee the protection of the human rights of all migrant workers and their families.
