Addressing Human Rights Challenges Through Universal Periodic Review on Bangladesh

As the 44th session of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) by the UN Human Rights Council (HRC) approaches in November 2023, it is crucial to shed light on the dire human rights situation in Bangladesh. In the lead-up to this critical session, it is imperative to delve into the key findings and recommendations established in the alternative reports submitted to the HRC and the continuing violations faced by human rights defenders, journalists, and critical voices within the country.

This webinar aims to analyze and shed light on these issues, advocating for recommendations that prioritize the imperative of democratization and protection of human rights in Bangladesh. As Bangladesh prepares for its UPR in November 2023, this webinar is designed to delve into these critical issues, to understand the depth of the challenges, and to advocate for meaningful action that safeguards human rights and democratic values in Bangladesh.
