    SUBJECT: SOUTHERN COMMAND'S HUMAN RIGHTS INITIATIVE;
        TRAINING POLICE IN COSTA RICA

    ¶1.  SUMMARY:  The U.S. Southern Command, as part of its Human
    Rights Initiative (HRI), sponsored a human rights conference
    in Costa Rica for 77 personnel, mainly from the public
    security force, November 28-December 1.  Building on the work
    of an initial conference in August, this event sought to
    create a consensus document on implementing the HRI in Costa
    Rica.   Participants developed objectives for human rights
    training for security officials and guidelines to measure the
    program's effectiveness, but differed over the need for, and
    possible function of, a human rights ombudsman within the
    police force.  The conference may help security force
    personnel better prepare for provocative and potentially
    violent demonstrations around the first legislature vote on
    CAFTA, expected in February.  This initiative is another
    example of USG "military" funding in support of a clearly
    civilian program.  We continue to point to initiatives like
    this to debunk the myth that USG military assistance is
    "militarizing" Costa Rica.  END SUMMARY.

    ¶2.  Southcom and the Costa Rican-based NGO Center for the
    Study, Training, and Analysis of Human Rights (CECADH) hosted
    the conference under the auspices of the HRI, a regional
    program designed to strengthen respect for human rights by
    the military and security forces of 34 nations in the Western
    Hemisphere.  Held at a resort in the Guanacaste province of
    northwestern Costa Rica, the conference included 77 Costa
    Ricans, mostly from the Costa Rican national police force
    (Fuerza Publica).  The conference sought to create a
    country-specific consensus document to guide implementation
    of the HRI's goals and parameters which were established at
    an August 2006 conference of security and human rights
    leaders in Costa Rica.  Poloff and the Embassy,s Southcom
    TCA (Traditional Commander's Activities) coordinator attended.

    ¶3.  Costa Rica is unique among HRI participants in that it
    does not have a military, so the goals and methods laid out
    in the consensus document were adapted for use by the police
    force, in conjunction with the human rights component
    alreadybuilt into the curruculum of the national police
    academy .  Discussion at times was lively, fueled by
    moderators from CECADH and the academy raising (the few)
    current cases of alleged human rights abuses by Costa Rican
    security officials.  Poloff observed groups of officers in
    spirited efforts to reach consensus on objectives assigned to
    their group.  The final product was a draft document,
    eventually to be available to the public (perhaps via a new
    link on the Ministry of Public Security's web page),
    explaining how security forces should be trained to respect
    human rights and how the effectiveness of that training would
    be measured.

    ¶4.  Some of the most passionate discussions, however,
    centered on whether the police force should have an internal
    human rights ombudsman, and if so, where that office should
    be located and what its authorities should be.  (NOTE: Costa
    Rica already has an independent human rights ombudsman,
    monitoring these issues nationwide.)  While the issue was not
    resolved and many of the ideas discussed were not practical,
    the extremely frank conversation served as a healthy venting
    of numerous institutional concerns.  U.S. participants in the
    discussion suggested that Costa Rica,s relatively strong
    human rights record and the GOCR,s limited resources were
    reasons not to create a new and potentially cumbersome entity
    within the office of the Minister of Public Security, where
    the ombudsman's objectivity on police violations of human
    rights might be questioned.

    -------
    COMMENT
    -------

    ¶5.  This was an important Southcom-sponsored effort to focus
    Costa Rican security authorities on how to more effectively
    implement their human rights doctrine.  The timing and topic
    of the conference were fortuitous.  The police need to be
    prepared for the next round of anti-CAFTA demonstrations
    which may coincide with the first ratification vote (probably
    in February).   Protestors may deliberately provoke security
    forces into over-reacting, in hopes of swaying public opinion
    (and a few key legislators) against CAFTA ratification.  The
    conference also achieved a milestone in that Costa Rican
    police officers established their own criteria for measuring
    progress toward their own policy goals.  Members of the
    Embassy,s Law Enforcement Committee will monitor GOCR follow
    up.  In addition, we will continue to point to initiatives
    such as HRI and this conference to debunk the lingering local
    myth that USG military assistance is "militarizing" Costa
    Rica.
