The Equality and Human Rights Commission published a report, ‘Protecting human rights: key challenges for the UK’s third Universal Periodic Review‘, in December 2016.
This report sets out the ongoing human rights challenges in Great Britain across 12 different areas of life, including education, health and privacy. It also provides recommendations to the UK, Scottish and Welsh governments on how to better respect and protect human rights, and fulfil their international obligations.
The Commission submitted the report for the UK’s third assessment under the UN Human Rights Council’s Universal Periodic Review (UPR).
The report is also available in French, in Spanish, in easy read form, and as a video in BSL.
