| The City of Osaka sought the views of citizens concerning the Municipal Promotion Plan for Human Rights Policy: Human Rights Navigation at the draft stage during the public comment period from October 17 to November 16 2008. Based on the survey results, the draft was revised and simplified and so Municipal Promotion Plan for Human Rights Policy: Human Rights Navigation was developed. This plan is based on a policy report about the future of policies on human rights submitted in December 2007 by the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. Its purpose is to reestablish a new human rights-conscious administration through which the City of Osaka will be better able to the human rights of all citizens and obtain their approval and cooperation, as well as to create an International Human Rights City in which everyone can see that Osaka is gradually becoming a society in which human rights are respected (*2) and be proud to say “I am glad to live in Osaka City.” In accordance with this plan, the City of Osaka will steadily promote human rights in the municipal administration and make an effort to build a society in which human rights are respected. |
