United Nations Special Rapporteur (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Special Rapporteur is a title given to individuals working on behalf of the United Nations within the scope of "Special Procedures" mechanisms who bear a specific mandate from the Commission on Human Rights (UNCHR) and assumed by the Human Rights Council.The role's title is French, and its correct spelling would be Sp cial Rapporteur, but this does not appear in use by the United Nations' English language publications. Although in French the meaning is 'to bring back a report', the mandate by the United Nations has been to "examine, monitor, advise and publicly report" on human rights problems through "activities undertaken by special procedures, including responding to individual complaints, conducting studies, providing advice on technical cooperation at the country level, and engaging in general promotional activities."
