Org. Setting and Reporting

The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), part of the United Nations Secretariat, is the leading UN entity on human rights mandated work for the protection of all human rights for all people; to help empower people to realize their rights; and to assist those responsible for upholding such rights in ensuring that they are implemented. The fundamental pillars of OHCHR’s work globally include: (1) strengthening the rule of law and accountability for human rights violations; (2), enhancing and protecting civic space and people’s participation; (3) enhancing equality and countering discrimination: (4) integrating human rights in sustainable development; (5) early warning, prevention and protection of human rights in situations of conflict and insecurity; and (6) increasing implementation of the international human rights mechanisms' outcomes.

This announcement broadcasts international internships based in the OHCHR Regional Office for South-East Asia (SEARO). Established in 2002, the Regional Office for South-East Asia acts as an expert resource and plays a catalytic and convening role, helping to bring human rights standards and mechanisms into discussions on political, social, economic and developmental issues amongst governmental and non-governmental actors. A combination of technical support and capacity building with key partners and advocacy on human rights issues of concern has formed the basis of the Regional Office’s work, including with government authorities, Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), national human rights institutions, civil society and the UN system. In addition to its work on the six fundamental pillars, SEARO is working on a number of thematic areas including migration, climate change, digital space and business and human rights and the Office aims to integrate gender into all areas of its work. SEARO covers Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Lao People's Democratic Republic, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Viet Nam, and it also supports OHCHR’s work elsewhere in the Asia and Pacific region.
