SESRIC and the Independent Permanent Human Rights Commission (IPHRC) of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to achieve common goals towards enhancing institutional capacities in areas of mutual interest.

The Signing Ceremony took place on the sidelines of the 8^th Annual Coordination Meeting of OIC Institutions (ACMOI) held in Jeddah.

H.E. Zehra Zümrüt SELÇUK and H.E. Prof. Noura bint Zaid AL-RASHOUD, Executive Director of IPHRC signed the MoU on 5 December 2024. Both OIC institutions will undertake joint initiatives and activities, including seminars, conferences, and capacity-building programs on issues of mutual interest within the framework of the MoU signed.
