GENEVA (3 March 2021) – Two UN human rights bodies in
charge of addressing the issue of enforced disappearances
are holding a webinar today to share experiences and
highlight why it is so crucial that States ratify the
International Convention for the Protection of all Persons
from Enforced Disappearances.
During the webinar, the
Committee
on Enforced Disappearances (CED), the Working
Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID),
joined by the International Coalition against Enforced
Disappearances (ICAED), and supported by the Geneva Human
Rights Platform of the Geneva Academy, will promote the
importance of universal ratification of the
Convention.
