How will The Carter Center interface with the new U.N. Human Rights Council?
The Center will continue to support development of the new council by convening high-level discussions, speaking out about key developments and issues, and networking with other nongovernmental organizations that are equally committed to building a strong human rights system within the United Nations. After having asserted that governments with a positive record in advancing human rights be elected to the council, the Center will work with a wide spectrum of nations to ensure that the new body avoids — or at least diminishes — the destructive politics of the U.N. commission which the council replaced. The Carter Center initiated discussions with delegations dealing with this concern.
