Julieth Mantilla's Company Details
The Universal Rights Group is an Independent think tank providing timely and policy-relevant research, analysis and recommendations on global human rights policy. Our mission is to generate progress towards the full realisation of the rights and freedoms contained in the universal human rights instruments through solution-based policy research, forward-looking policy prescription, and through offering a respected platform for information-sharing and dialogue. The Group's work is organised around four broad programmes. The programmes are: - In Focus: Human rights and religion - Contemporary and emerging human rights issues - International human rights institutions, mechanisms and processes - Beyond the Council – human rights protection outside the main Geneva-based human rights mechanisms Under each of these programmes specific projects are set by the Board, meeting at least once a year. Projects are chosen due to their contemporary importance and relevance – and their potential to generate change. In addition to the four programmes, the Group focuses on one cross-cutting theme – namely improving the visibility of and understanding around the international human rights system. This theme is designed to bring the international human rights system closer to the people it is obligated to protect – i.e. people on the ground whose rights have been, or are being, violated and who need support and protection.
