Este Consejo fue <strong>creado en 2006 y sus 47 miembros se eligen de acuerdo a un reparto geogr\u00e1fico<\/strong> en el que los pa\u00edses asi\u00e1ticos, africanos y latinoamericanos tienen 13 asientos cada uno, 7 los pa\u00edses occidentales y 6 los Estados de Europa Oriental.<\/p>\n<p>La principal funci\u00f3n del Consejo es elaborar el <strong>Examen peri\u00f3dico Universal (EPU) en el que los 193 Estados miembros de las Naciones Unidas se someten a un escrutinio<\/strong> sobre la situaci\u00f3n de los DDHH dentro de sus fronteras. Aunque el Consejo no tiene poder ejecutivo, la presi\u00f3n de someterse a este examen redunda en un mayor respeto a los DDHH. Adem\u00e1s, el Consejo tambi\u00e9n cuenta con la opci\u00f3n de activar Procedimientos Especiales para abordar situaciones espec\u00edficas de violaciones de DDHH, bien en \u00e1reas tem\u00e1ticas o en un pa\u00eds en concreto. <\/p>\n<p>Espa\u00f1a forma parte del Consejo hasta 2020 y su actuaci\u00f3n se centrar\u00e1 hasta entonces en 3 \u00e1reas tem\u00e1ticas para las que se consignan 6 objetivos mayores. As\u00ed, Espa\u00f1a apuesta por la defensa de la dignidad humana y los derechos humanos, el apoyo a la democracia y al Estado de Derecho, as\u00ed como el Desarrollo Sostenible. Estas prioridades se concretan en seis prop\u00f3sitos: luchar contra la pena de muerte, a trav\u00e9s de un avance gradual hasta llegar a su derogaci\u00f3n, eliminar la discriminaci\u00f3n por razones de g\u00e9nero y orientaci\u00f3n sexual, defender los DDHH de las personas con discapacidad, fomentar el derecho de acceso al agua potable y al saneamiento, proteger a los defensores de los Derechos Humanos y asegurarse de que las empresas respetan escrupulosamente estos derechos.<\/p>\n<p>El compromiso de Espa\u00f1a con los DDHH bebe de su absoluto respeto dentro de las fronteras del pa\u00eds, como as\u00ed lo reconocen los 180 miembros de la Asamblea General de la ONU que votaron a favor del ingreso de Espa\u00f1a en el Consejo de Derechos Humanos. <\/p>\n<p>Pablo Blanco<br \/>\nINCIPE<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-022.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-022-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"6793-022\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5756\" \/><\/a>   <a href=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-007.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-007-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"6793-007\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5757\" \/><\/a>   <a href=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-016.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-016-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"6793-016\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5759\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--:--><!--:en--><strong>On June 9th, INCIPE hosted a Working Breakfast under the name <em>Spain in the United Nations Human Rights Council<\/em>, with the participation of Juan Ignacio Morro, General Director of United Nations and Human Rights in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The defense of human rights is an unfathomable theme, but it is based on the basis that is a person is sacred and its protection should move into a political-institutional dimension that will support itself off the United Nations Charter (whose objective is to promote peace, international cooperation, and human rights) and the rule of law, which is characterized by the separation of powers and the protection of human rights.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the United Nations has a variety of tools for the defense of human rights: first, the <strong>Universal Declaration of Human Rights<\/strong>, as well as the 9 treaties and committees (over themes like race, women, torture, amd infant protection); but also the <strong>Office of the High Commissioner and the Council of Human Rights<\/strong>. This council was created in 2006 and its 47 members are chosen according to a geographical distribution in which the Asian, African, and Latin American countries each have 13 seats, the Occidental countries have 7, and the Oriental European countries have 6.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The main function of the Council is to elaborate the Universal Periodic Review <\/strong>in which the 193 member countries of the UN are subject to scrutiny over the situation regarding human rights within their frontiers. Even though the Council does not have any executive power, the pressure of having to submit to this test results in greater respect towards human rights. Also, the Council has the option of activating special procedures to approach specific situations of human rights violations, in certain areas or specific countries. <\/p>\n<p>Spain is a part of the Council until 2020 and their performance will be centered around 3 areas in order to achieve 6 major objectives. Therefore, Spain bets for the defense of human dignity and human rights, the support for democracy and the rule of law, as well as sustainable development. These priorities are centered around 6 purposes: fight against the death penalty, through a gradual advance until its repeal, eliminate gender and sexual orientation discrimination, defend the human rights of the disabled, promote the right of access to safe, drinking water and sanitation, protect human rights defenders and ensure that that businesses\u00b4 respect these rights scrupulously. <\/p>\n<p>Spain\u00b4s commitment with human rights is based on its absolute respect within their borders, as recognized by the 180 members of the UN General Assembly that voted in favor of Spain&#8217;s entry into the Human Rights Council. <\/p>\n<p>Pablo Blanco<br \/>\nINCIPE<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-022.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-022-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"6793-022\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5756\" \/><\/a>   <a href=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-007.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-007-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"6793-007\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5757\" \/><\/a>   <a href=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-016.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.incipe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/6793-016-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"6793-016\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5759\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--:--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>El pasado 29 de junio, INCIPE organiz\u00f3 un Desayuno de Trabajo bajo el t\u00edtulo Espa\u00f1a en el Consejo de Derechos Humanos de las Naciones Unidas, con la participaci\u00f3n de Juan [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":5757,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5755","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-desayunos-de-trabajo"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5755","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5755"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5755\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5755"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5755"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fundacionincipe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5755"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
