Headline Press Conference by Special Representative of Secretary-General on Human Rights Defenders

Caption Description Hina Jilani, Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Human Rights Defenders, held a press conference today at UN Headquarters. She said that human rights defenders, who were in the front line in defending the right to fair trial and due process, were becoming more and more vulnerable. Briefing correspondents after presenting her report to the Third Committee (Social, Humanitarian and Cultural), she said that the increasing vulnerability of the defenders was due to their marginalization and the de-legitimization of their role, which was protected by the Universal Declaration on Human Rights.
