The workshop held last Friday was aimed at refreshing and raising awareness among CSOs in Samoa about the United Nations Human Rights Council’s (HRC) upcoming Universal Periodic Review (UPR) and provide guidance to CSOs in preparing and compiling their submissions or shadow reports to the UPR.
Director of Human Rights Loukinini Vili-Lewaravu said it was an opportunity for CSOs to discuss best practices and better understand their involvement in the UPR process.
