State responsibility for eliminating violence against women 2013, para. 68
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- Furthermore, a crucial point of reflection concerns the role of United Nations and other international agencies who are involved in formulating research reports, guidelines and other tools. The questions that come to mind include: What is their role and responsibility in follow-up work once they have generated relevant tools and other materials on standards, norms and best practices? Do these agencies have an obligation to conduct educative work in order to disseminate such materials? Do they have an obligation to monitor and assess the usage of such documents, including conducting research at the national level, to assess whether there are barriers to effective usage of such tools and standards? Do they have a role in conducting research on outcomes, through empirical research projects involving both State and non-State actors? Also, do they have a role in identifying best practices and disseminating such information generally and to Member States in particular?
