The ongoing business of strengthening the UN human rights treaty bodies


Joint NGO response to the report of the co-facilitators of the UN General Assembly’s review of the UN human rights treaty body system


Over 150 NGOs, including TB-Net, an informal group of international NGOs and Networks that closely works with the UN Treaty bodies and of which the OMCT is a member, jointly responded to the report submitted to the UN General Assembly by Morocco and Switzerland, the co-facilitators for the process of the consideration of the state of the UN human rights treaty body system. The joint NGO response welcomes the co-facilitators report and highlights the key recommendations that are fundamental for the strengthening of the human rights treaty body system (treaty body system). It further includes our recommendations to States, the treaty bodies, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), and the President of the 75th session of the General Assembly on how to move forward on the implementation of these recommendations.
