In the face of the COVID-19 public health emergency, UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of peaceful assembly and of association Clément Voule, issued ten key principles to remind States of the necessity of responding in a manner compliant with their human rights obligations.
The UNSR also published an accompanying checklist and survey designed to help assess the implementation by government authorities and other key actors of UNSR’s guidance. The checklist contains 58 indicators organized under 10 overarching principles.
