Submission for Special Rapporteur

A Submission for Special Rapporteur is a document that provides information and analysis to a United Nations Special Rapporteur on a specific human rights issue or situation. Special Rapporteurs are independent experts appointed by the UN Human Rights Council to monitor and report on specific human rights issues or country situations. Submissions to Special Rapporteurs can be made by individuals, civil society organizations, or other stakeholders, and typically include information on alleged human rights violations, as well as recommendations for action by the Special Rapporteur or other relevant actors. Submissions are an important tool for bringing human rights concerns to the attention of the international community, and for supporting the work of Special Rapporteurs in investigating and addressing human rights challenges.
