Holy See (Vatican): Unofficial Minutes of the UN Committee Against Torture's review

Unofficial Minutes UNCAT Holy See review
24 pages / 1.01 MB

The UN Committee Against Torture (UNCAT) reviewed the Holy See on 5 and 6 May 2014 as part of UNCAT’s 52nd session. 

A number of NGOs, including the World Organization Against Torture (OMCT) and Child Rights International (CRIN), advocated for UNCAT to include child sexual abuse in the Catholic Church as part of the Holy See’s review, as a result the issue was widely discussed during the session.

 

As part of our efforts to be transparent the OMCT and CRIN decided to publish the unofficial notes taken during the session.

 

All official documentation, including alternative reports by other NGOs, can be found on the UNCAT’s session page.
