United Nations: A Practical Guide on Civil Society Space and the United Nations Human Rights System

© www.un.org

At a time when human rights and democratic spaces are increasingly under pressure in many parts of the world, we want to draw attention to an important document: the "Practical Guide for Civil Society, Civil Society Space and the United Nations Human Rights System".

This guide, published by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), is still of great importance and relevance. It provides a comprehensive overview of how civil society members can use the UN system to promote and protect human rights, focusing particularly on freedom of expression, association, and peaceful assembly.

The guide is especially relevant in today's global context, where many activists and civil society organizations face growing challenges. It provides practical tools and essential knowledge to navigate and better understand the United Nations system and leverage its resources for human rights advocacy at local and international levels.

Among the attachments, you can find the complete guide in English.
