AB  - This article presents the ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights. The
Commission was set up in October 2009 to promote human rights in the ten member States of this
regional cooperation organization of southeast Asia. The article explores the process of recognition of
human rights within this organization, the act of constitution of the Commission and the reactions to it by
other relevant States, international organizations and NGO�s. Then there is an analysis of the
Commission�s statute, focusing particularly on the possibilities left open by the statute to develop its
functions, taking into account the experience and practice of other international mechanisms, on a
universal as well as a regional level. The article is closed with a reference to the first case brought to the
attention of the Commission where violations of human rights took place, and with a compilation of the
most relevant conclusions.
