However, there exist significant operational barriers to creating and developing such clinics, which depend largely on volunteerism and limited financial budgets. This policy and practice note not only presents a framework aimed at navigating these barriers in developing a student-run asylum clinic but also outlines critical challenges and recommendations for addressing them. We describe three principal components of clinic structure: community outreach and service, administration of forensic medical evaluations, and continuity of care. We also highlight challenges, such as access to a physical space for evaluations, maintenance of interpreter access and quality, standardization of clinician evaluator expectations, clinician evaluator availability, and evaluator wellbeing. Recommendations include the incorporation of a diversity of referral sources, opportunities for clinician-clinician shadowing, evaluation quality assessment, affidavit standardization, and development of interdisciplinary partnership.","PeriodicalId":45407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Rights Practice","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141771175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the novel approaches to promote and defend these legal regimes among NSAGs, growing attention is devoted to the roles that religious leaders might play in promoting behaviours in compliance with IHL and IHRL. This approach seems especially pertinent in the case of religiously driven NSAGs, such as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) in north-west Syria and Ansar Allah in north Yemen. This article aims to provide valuable insight on the potential of humanitarian engagement with religious leaders in these contexts. It starts by exploring the relationship between religious leaders active in north-west Syria and north Yemen and HTS and Ansar Allah respectively. The analysis proceeds by exploring whether those relationships had an impact over the NSAGs’ compliance/non-compliance with IHL and IHRL. Finally, we engage in an explanatory effort to make sense of the similarities and differences identified in the influence that religious leaders exercise (or do not exercise) on HTS and Ansar Allah in matters of humanitarian norms compliance.","PeriodicalId":45407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Rights Practice","volume":"237 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141520670","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various UN entities have been established solely to promote and protect human rights, such as the Human Rights Council and the human rights treaty bodies. Others, such as the Security Council, have mandates intrinsically connected to human rights. Furthermore, a variety of UN specialized agencies, programmes and funds work in areas associated with human rights. However, the work these entities undertake lacks coordination. In his 2020 Call to Action, UN Secretary-General António Guterres spoke of the need to enhance ‘synergies between human rights and all pillars of the work of the United Nations’ and encouraged the use of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) process as a way of doing so. Furthermore, one of the ‘principles’ of UPR is that it should ‘complement and not duplicate other human rights mechanisms’. There has been little exploration of the extent to which UPR does, in fact, complement the UN’s other work in human rights. This article seeks to fill that gap. Drawing on data from the first three cycles of UPR, it demonstrates the extent to which states have complemented UN efforts to protect and promote human rights in UPR recommendations. Building on these empirical observations, it explores how UPR recommendations could be used to further coordinate and reinforce the UN’s human rights work by avoiding generic references to the UN, expanding their focus beyond the ‘core’ UN human rights bodies to engage with the work of all UN entities, and encouraging engagement with all aspects of a particular entity’s mandate.","PeriodicalId":45407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Rights Practice","volume":"87 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141502842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The core principle of direct accessibility to UNHCR is continuously balanced against other competing concerns. But what, in policy and practice, are these competing concerns? And at what point does the presence of refugees and other protection seekers become illegitimate from the perspective of UNHCR? Building on original empirical research, this article explores collective action by Sudanese protection seekers at UNHCR’s office in Beirut, Lebanon. It shows how the spatial practices of UNHCR influence its relationship with protection seekers, and how these relations intersect with broader dynamics of securitization. In Beirut, once a presence was considered to ‘disturb the work of the Office’, a more restrictive policy involving host state security was triggered. The article interrogates what it means to ‘disturb the work of the Office’ in the context of a heavily securitized city and spotlights the blocking of UNHCR entrance doors in Beirut as a pivotal example of when collective action is considered by UNHCR to be so disturbing that protection seekers are to be forcibly removed from UNHCR ‘territory’.","PeriodicalId":45407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Rights Practice","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141502857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite relevant legal advances, such as the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (2007), the implementation gap between the adoption of international standards by States and their compliance still remains. This article relies on empirical examples from Interactive Dialogues (ID) with the Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (SRIP) and the Expert Mechanism on the Right of Indigenous Peoples (EMRIP), held between 2011 and 2021 in the Human Rights Council sessions, to exemplify how these struggles also become noticeable in the public and global arenas. It highlights the emblematic case of conflicting narratives between Indigenous peoples and the Brazilian State in 2020, when the latter strategically used ‘misunderstandings’ to delegitimize Indigenous peoples’ claims. It concludes that the underlying challenge in the implementation of Indigenous peoples’ rights rests in ontological conflicts between States and Indigenous peoples, especially concerning the meaning of self-determination. These struggles are reflected in the disputing of narratives in the UN human rights arenas, and have been shaping interpretations of Indigenous peoples’ rights that privilege a perspective antagonistic to them. The article provides some practice-oriented recommendations for reducing discourse manipulation at the HRC.","PeriodicalId":45407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Rights Practice","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140026223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Historically the principles of autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence and justice have been violated in individuals with mental disorders. This article aims to analyse the perceptions of individuals involved in research ethics advocacy in Aranzazu-Colombia, from the Declaration of the Town Square to current research practices and community empowerment initiatives. For this, a qualitative study was conducted in the municipality of Aranzazu as part of a Community-Based Rehabilitation strategy in Mental Health. Two focus groups were conducted with a total of 30 participants, including community representatives, institutional members, and healthcare personnel. The themes that emerged were ‘The urgency of speaking as one’, ‘Our research questions’ and ‘Human rights for recovery’. The process of adoption of community protection measures that guided the investigative processes with the town of Aranzazu is presented. A discussion is raised around the instrumentalization of people in the investigation and the claim of human rights by communities, as a mechanism to strengthen community recovery actions. It is concluded that mental health research should help to affirm dignity, reduce stigma, improve access to psychosocial recovery and achieve real participation in building the well-being of communities.","PeriodicalId":45407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Rights Practice","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139678299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
