The last stage of the proceedings before UN Treaty Bodies entails the implementation of a positive decision from a Treaty Body. Even though this comes at the end of the litigation process, implementation of a Treaty Body’s decision is a crucial stage of the process, and we need to consider already at the outset what measures we could take to push for the implementation of a potentially positive decision.

What measures can lawyers and human rights defenders take to encourage implementation of a favourable treaty body decision?

What are the specific national follow-up mechanisms for the effective implementation of UN treaty body decisions in many countries?

How to advocate and engage the Treaty Body with respect to the implementation of its positive decision?

This episode is part of an eight-episode course on litigation before UN treaty bodies produced by the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ) and presented by Jurgen Schurr, Head of Law for Lawyers in Justice in Libya (LFJL).

This course is aimed at lawyers and human rights defenders in the Middle East and North Africa region. The course provides lawyers and human rights defenders with an overview of the UN treaty body system, presents the concept of strategic litigation, before going through the different stages involved in litigating a case before the UN Treaty Bodies. The course also looks at the burden of proof in such cases, and the type of information and facts that lawyers and human rights defenders will have to present to the UN Treaty Body in support of their cases.
