Paragraph text
The State also has due diligence obligations with regard to the enjoyment of human rights. Those obligations relate to preventing violations and protecting persons from them. When violations have occurred, the State has the obligation to appropriately investigate, to compensate victims and to exert serious efforts to prevent repetition. The prevention of violations relates to those carried out by non State actors and even in the private sphere.
