  • Women, Peace and Security"
    In 2000 the UN Security Council adopted Resolution (UNSCR) 1325 on "Women, Peace and Security". It acknowledges the disproportionate effects of war and conflict on women, as well as the influence women can and must have in prevention and resolution of conflict, and in peace and reconstruction processes. Its main goals are to enhance women's role and decision-making capacities with regard to conflict prevention, conflict resolution and peace building; and to significantly improve factors that directly influence women's security. Finland launched its National Action Plan on the implementation of UNSCR 1325 in 2008. The main objective of this research is to contribute to the understanding of, and provide practical recommendations on, how the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland can: i) Implement Finland's National Action Plan on 1325 through development cooperation, especially its commitment to facilitate women's participation in decision-making in conflict situations, peace processes and post-conflict activities, as well as to protect women in conflicts; ii) Support conflict prevention and post conflict development by strengthening women's role, and empowering women in countries with fragile situations; and; iii) Monitor and measure the Security and Peace Women, progress of such implementation. In addition, the study explored three specific, innovative themes relevant for the question of Women, Peace and Security: i) Involvement of Men; ii) Internally Displaced Persons; and iii) Environment. This study was carried out from April to December 2009 and included case studies in Kenya, Nepal and North-Eastern India, all of which represent countries or areas in diverse and complex conflict and post-conflict situations.

    The State of Human Rights in Ten Asian Nations - 2011 Asian Nations Ten of Human Rights in State The The State of Human Rights he State of Human Rights in Ten Asian Nations in Ten Asian Nations - 2011 T - 2011 is the Asian Human Rights Commission’s (AHRC) annual report, comprising information and analysis on the human rights violations and situations it encountered through its work in 2011. The report includes in-depth assessments of the situations in Bangladesh, Burma, India, Indonesia, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea, Sri Lanka and Thailand. The AHRC works on individual human rights cases in each of these countries and assists victims in their attempts to seek redress through their domestic legal systems, despite the difficulties encountered in each context. Through this work, the organisation gains detailed practical knowledge of the obstacles and systemic lacuna that prevent the effective protection of rights and enable impunity for the perpetrators of violations. Based on this, the organisation then makes recommendations concerning needed reforms to the legal frameworks and state institutions in each setting. This work aims to enable the realisation of rights in a region that remains blighted by crippled institutions of the rule of law, which are enabling systemic impunity for the gamut of grave human rights violations, including torture, forced disappearances, extra-judicial killings, attacks on and discrimination against minorities, women and human rights defenders, as well as widespread violations of a range of other

  • In Defence of Journalists
    ISBN 81-89479-74-1 IN DEFENCE OF JOURNALISTS 9 788189 479749 This is a publication of the Human Rights Law Network written to IN DEFENCE OF JOURNALISTS inform journalists and the lawyers representing them of their free speech rights and responsibilities under the most current law in India. Free speech in the media is an integral part of democracy and necessary for the protection and enforcement of many other constitutional rights. Journalists in India stand at the forefront in the battle against censorship, corruption and repression, and are to be commended for their defense of democracy. In Defence of Journalists has been organised into chapters that cover the broad issues and charges which are common in cases dealing with journalists. At the beginning of each chapter is a brief background and a summary of the law that coincides with the topic. Otherwise the chapters consist of excerpted judgments which highlight various rules and arguments from the courts of India. Each case is preceded by a summary designed to quickly recite the facts and rule of the case. In Defence of Journalists is written with the journalists in mind. While it is not intended to be a substitute for legal advice in any way whatsoever, it is hoped that this book will allow journalists to be better informed about their rights and their position at law, and to assist them in speaking truth to power.
