On February 24, 2015, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights announced [3] the first session of the working group responsible for examining the periodic reports of parties to the Additional Protocol [4] to the American Convention on Human Rights in the Area of Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (also known as the Protocol of San Salvador). Paulo Vannuchi, the commissioner in charge of the economic, social, and cultural rights unit, called the session “ a milestone—a historic event” and added that the challenge of the Organization of American States is to advance “all human rights, including economic, social, and cultural rights. Because there can be no freedom where there is hunger, and there can be no future where there is no education or health care.” The working group is expected to make recommendations concerning the progressive fulfillment of economic rights in submitting states.
