The United States believes the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) has the potential to effect real change in countries throughout the world. The UPR is not just something that occurs in Geneva every four and half years. It is an ongoing, daily tool to advance human rights. Our interventions to other countries are crafted with the goal of providing useful, targeted recommendations that, when implemented, will create positive change for society. The 19th UPR is occurring from Monday, April 30 - May 9, 2014. Please see below for our interventions to the fourteen countries participating in Session 19. Each link below will become active once its intervention is available.
