According to the website of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), there are many universal instruments relating to human rights other than the International Bill of Rights and the core human rights treaties.

I was given an opportunity to attend a programme or a training related to International Human Rights System coorganised by the Friedrich-Ebert Stiftung Foundation (FES), the Global Alliance of National Human Rights Institutions (GANHRI) and the Office of the Council of Human Rights (OHCHR). I would share my view in this page and I hope Malay speaking runners of nongovernmental institutions could also benefit from my 'few' days experience of training. Please click here, thank you.
