GENEVA — The United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) has adopted 25 resolutions at the end of its 56th regular session in Geneva, including one on climate change and human rights drafted and proposed by Việt Nam, Bangladesh, and the Philippines.
The session, which took place from June 18 to July 12, featured five thematic panel discussions, debates and dialogues on 37 special procedures and human rights mechanisms of the UN, as well as consultations on draft resolutions.
The UNHRC also completed the procedural adoption of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) reports of 14 countries in Cycle IV.
At this session, the Vietnamese delegation, led by Ambassador Mai Phan Dũng, Permanent Representative of Việt Nam to the United Nations, the World Trade Organisation (WTO) and other international organisations in Geneva, actively participated in the development and introduction of the council’s resolutions.
This reflected its efforts in promoting and protecting human rights as well as responding to climate change, while also contributing to the implementation of its foreign policy of being proactive and responsible for common issues of the international community.
The resolution on climate change and human rights has been actively introduced annually by Việt Nam, Bangladesh, and the Philippines for the council’s consideration and approval since 2008, with a different theme for each year.
On July 10, the UN Human Rights Council unanimously adopted 2024 resolution on climate change and human rights with the theme of just transition. This is a success of the three missions from proposing and drafting content to consulting and lobbying countries to ratify it.
The Vietnamese delegation actively delivered speeches in various sessions and discussions on human rights and rights to health care and education, extreme poverty, and discrimination against women and girls, as well as at sessions approving UPR reports of countries. Along with ASEAN countries, it also made a joint statement on technical cooperation.
The delegation actively joined exchanges and consultations with representatives of other countries and co-sponsored many initiatives in the spirit of dialogue and cooperation, demonstrating Việt Nam’s consistent views, policies and achievements in promoting and protecting human rights.
It also affirmed Việt Nam’s message of “Mutual Respect, Dialogue and Cooperation, Ensuring All Human Rights, for All” for its three-year membership at the UNHRC (2023-2025). — VNS
