Civil Society Section Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Special Rapporteur on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association Questionnaire Dear All, We are pleased to forward this questionnaire, which solicits information from States, intergovernmental organisations, civil society organisations and other relevant actors with a view to assisting the Special Rapporteur in his assessment. In his upcoming report to the UN General Assembly to be presented in October 2014, the Special Rapporteur turns his attention to the exercise of the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association in relation to the multilateral level. More specifically he intends to assess the impact of State action at the multilateral level on civic space, and the extent to which this facilitates or hinders the exercise of the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association. The report departs from the premise that an enabling civic environment is a pre-requisite for the effective exercise of such rights. Kindly send your responses to [email protected] by 25 July 2014. French and Spanish versions of the questionnaire will follow soon. Best regards, Civil Society Section Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Tel. +41 (0) 22 - 917 - 9656 Visit our website: ohchr.org/EN/AboutUs/Pages/CivilSociety.aspx
