Progress on Implementing of Child Focused UPR Recommendations

Progress on Implementing of Child Focused UPR Recommendations

December 31, 2015

As two years have passed since the second cycle of UPR on Bangladesh held in Geneva in 2013, Child Rights Advocacy Coalition in Bangladesh (CRAC,B), a coalition of international organisations, Networks, Alliances and national organisations working for children formed to carry out coordinated and concerted advocacy with the government of Bangladesh to uphold child rights in line with UNCRC and UPR commitments, has prepared this report assessing the implementation of the child focused UPR recommendations. The Coalition intended to present a stakeholders’ analysis on the status of implementation of accepted UPR recommendations in order to identify gaps and challenges and to provide specific recommendations for overcoming existing challenges.

Child Rights Unit, ASK, has prepared the assessment and also coordinated the whole process of publication on behalf of the Coalition. Save the Children (SCiB) has given technical assistance and support during the report preparation period.
