Strengthening Partnerships for Human Rights in Samoa 🇼🇸🇬🇧

The British High Commissioner to Samoa, His Excellency Andrew Nethercott, was pleased to meet with Ombudsman Vui Clarence Nelson on 15 September for a productive and engaging courtesy call.

The meeting provided an opportunity to discuss shared priorities and explore areas for future collaboration, including the protection of children in digital spaces, addressing climate change, and tackling family and domestic violence.

The United Kingdom remains committed to working with partners across the Pacific to promote and protect human rights, strengthen democratic institutions, and support inclusive and resilient communities.
