Pursuant to Human Rights Council resolution 47/21, the International Independent Expert Mechanism to Advance Racial Justice and Equality in Law Enforcement presents its first report, in which it shares its methods of work and its approach for the fulfilment of its mandate, as well as an overview of activities undertaken since its establishment in December 2021. |
In particular, the Expert Mechanism focuses on the collection, publication and analysis of data disaggregated by race or ethnic origin with regard to interactions of Africans and people of African descent with law enforcement authorities and the criminal justice system, as an essential element for driving and assessing responses to systemic racism in the areas of law enforcement and the criminal justice system. The Expert Mechanism proposes a series of recommendations in this regard. |
