En route to the 7th World Summit on Human Rights, the Global Chairman of the International Human Rights Commission (IHRC), Dr Shahid Amin Khan has visited Ghana.
He also has plans of visiting a number of African States upon the invitation of IHRC's Ambassador at Large to the African Union, Abu Zein.
Dr Khan's three-day visit will see him engage with some personalities and agencies of government.
He is accompanied by some other Human Rights advocates and activists.
The 7th World Summit itself scheduled for April 22 to 24 in Geneva Switzerland will see the first female President in the history of Slovenia Natasa Pirc Musar.
The visit forms part of Slovenia's first female president's pre-7th World Summit on Human Rights in Geneva, Switzerland.
The duo will be among high-profile dignitaries lined up for the 7th World Summit on Human Rights and International Human Rights Awards in Geneva, Switzerland this year, 2023.
The summit, scheduled from April 22 to 24, this year is expected to draw dignitaries from across the globe.
Among the dignitaries to grace, the event is the Dr Noledi Punder, Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Republic of South Africa, Federia Villegos, president of UN Human Rights Council, ambassador of Argentine to UN, Geneva, Kaja Kallas, Prime Minister of Estonia and Abu Zein.
Several such closed-door deliberations have taken place since his arrival on Saturday.
IHRC Chief has extended an official invitation to the president of Seychelles, Wavel Ramkalawan, to be the Keynote Speaker and Special Guest at the 7th World Summit.
The African multilateral engagements are enhanced due to the consistent diplomatic efforts of Abu Zein.
Dr Khan will make a courtesy call to the President before his departure.
He will depart from Accra on April 19, to Libya for another such same intervention before finally flying to Geneva for the said conference.
