Outline of Final Research Achievements

The United Nations Human Rights Council's independent human rights experts system- otherwise known as ‘Special Procedures’ - are considered by many to be, in the words of then UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, the ‘crown jewel’ of the international human rights system. From their first appearance in 1967 , Special Procedures have grown into one of the international community’s most important tools for promoting and protecting human rights. Today, the UN human rights system boasts fifty-six separate Special Procedures mandates covering a wide-range of thematic and country-specific issues. By the rapid quantitative and qualitative expansion, the international community began to perceive of Special Procedures as a distinct and consolidated system, This research has analyzed and examined their roles, functions, and the obstacles that they confront in their work about the system as a whole.
