The Commission on Human Rights thru the Office of GovLink and PAHRA-Philrights who are spearheading a joint submission for several CSOs deemed that a consultation would be  important to:

1.     To revisit the significance of the UPR in HR promotion and protection

2.     To review UPR Guidelines for the 2nd cycle and respective roles of NHRIs and CSOs

3.     To present the CHR and CSO independent submissions

4.     To identify issues of common concerns and unique findings on the implementation of recommendations by government

5.     To strategize and optimize the respective roles of NHRIs and CSOs and lobby work  in ensuring more meaningful recommendations to the Philippine government for the promotion, protection and fulfilment of human rights of all Filipinos
