participation of the justice4Yemen pact colition inthe 57th session of human rihgts council of the UN

Despite these challenges, the Justice4Yemen Pact Coalition has made noteworthy contributions to Yemen’s Universal Periodic Review (UPR) process, particularly through its engagement in the UPR Joint Stakeholders Report. During the 57th session of the Human Rights Council, Yemen accepted 201 out of 256 recommendations, many of which align with the Coalition’s objectives. Among these, Yemen’s acceptance of recommendations to ratify key international human rights treaties—including the Optional Protocol to the Convention against Torture (OPCAT) and the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance—marks a positive step towards enhancing transitional justice, peace, and security efforts.
