Dear Everyone,

Good day! I wish to share with you recent website articles concerning the UPR of the Philippines.

“Philippines Human Rights record reviewed by the Human Rights Council”

“HR Council adopted UPR working group report on Philippines; Government accepted 53 recommendations”
http://www.childrightscoalitionasia.org/hr-council-adopted-upr-working-group-report-on-philippines-government-accepted-53-recommendations

Please feel free to share this with other colleagues and networks in the Philippines.

Please take note of the recommendations that are subject to further review. The government is due to give its feedback to HRC in September 2012. It is vital that these recommendations be accepted. Once accepted, these recommendations will be considered in the next cycle of the UPR where the Philippines is obligated to give an update on the measures undertaken.

Best regards,
