Is the UPR living up to its potential to advance economic, social and cultural rights? This question is
at the heart of research recently completed by the Center for Economic and Social Rights and the Sciences Po Law School Clinic. The launch will
include a brief overview of the research findings and reflections from various stakeholders engaged in the
UPR, including member states, United Nations agencies and civil society.
