Dear UCLG ASPAC Members,
We are pleased to forward you the 2nd online “Human Rights Go Local Academy” organised by the UNESCO, University of Graz, UN-Habitat, OHCHR, FRA, and UCLG. The Academy aims to contribute to the United Nations vision of protecting and promoting human rights for all by informing local governments on how to deliver on their related obligations, as well as to the goals set by the 2030 Agenda, and its promise to “Leave No One Behind”. The Academy and Conference series demonstrates innovative approaches and proven practices for protecting and promoting human rights at the local level, making cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable
The Academy ends with a public closing Conference on 8 Feb from 12 to 2pm CET (6-8pm JKT). To participate, please register here: https://www.humanrightsgolocal.org/academy22/conference/
During the 8 Feb event, the outcome document of the Academy will be presented. The Outcome Document is the document that contains encouragement to local governments on how to realize their human rights commitments effectively and sustainably. It is based on the discussions at the Academy and the preliminary work of the organizers. Here is how last year's document looked – you can find the encouragements (1-14) and “explanatory remarks” for each, which are direct inputs and examples given by the 2021 Academy participants:
