The United Nations Human Rights Council was founded after a recent adoption of the United Nations’ General Assembly resolution to establish the new UN’s principal human rights body, as a result of a reform of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (UNHCHR). Many different opinions were taken into consideration in order to achieve this landmark agreement. Now, all those dedicated to the realisation of human rights throughout the world should join in the common cause to hold every government, big and small, to the highest standards of human rights practices.
