Confronting Racial Discrimination: A CERD Perspective

Patrick Thornberry*

* Professor of International Law, Keele University

From the perspective of a member of the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination this article provides an overview of the implementation of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination. The article reviews the work of the Committee in endeavouring to fulfil a difficult mandate by ensuring that the Convention remains relevant, and also demonstrates how, through mechanisms such as its concluding observations and general recommendations, the Committee continually endeavours to address the contemporary meaning of racial discrimination as used in the Convention.
