UN trains Libya's human rights council on detention monitoring

The United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) has held a workshop to strengthen the capacity of the country's National Council for Civil Liberties and Human Rights. The training, held at the mission's headquarters on Wednesday, brought together 25 participants from council branches across eastern and western Libya. According to a statement by UNSMIL, the workshop focused on strengthening the council's compliance with the 'Paris Principles' — international standards for national human rights institutions. Participants received in-depth training on detention monitoring, including the UN's Mandela Rules for the treatment of prisoners and the Bangkok Rules for female detainees. The session concluded with the development of a standardized checklist to be used during future prison visits, aimed at ensuring human rights protections inside detention facilities. The UNSMIL said the workshop is part of ongoing efforts to support Libyan institutions and foster a human rights-based approach to detention monitoring and governance.
