In November 2020, the United States will undergo a “Universal Periodic Review” (UPR) of its domestic human rights record at the UN Human Rights Council. In 2019, UNA-USA campus and community chapters hosted local Universal Periodic Review (UPR) Consultations to engage the UN on strengthening human rights in the United States.
UPR Consultations convene advocates to discuss a specific human rights issue in the United States. After the Consultation, advocates compile an official reports which includes specific observations and constructive recommendations for the U.S. federal government.
The reports below were submitted by UNA-USA chapters and partner organizations for consideration in the November 2020 Universal Periodic Review.
The United Nations plays a critical role in promoting global peace, security, and health, but it relies on U.S. support to carry out its mission. Ask your House Representative to sign on to a letter calling for full U.S. funding to the UN.
