Security and protection of human rights defenders 2010, para. 109
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur commends the work of the United Nations Joint Human Rights Office in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in particular the Protection Unit, which ran the programme for the protection of victims, witnesses and human rights defenders, funded by the European Union, until its closure in March 2009. The programme was then absorbed by United Nations Organization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo into the work of the Protection Unit. Since the inception of the programme in June 2007, the Protection Unit has assisted 487 victims, witnesses and defenders in 11 provinces. Other United Nations peacekeeping missions should draw upon this example, and the Special Rapporteur strongly encourages them to replicate this protection programme.
