Hi everyone,

I’m ready for #HoithaoUPR in Geneva and looking forward to attend a pre-UPR side event on Vietnam’s human rights record.

The Universal Periodic Review (UPR) “has great potential to promote and protect human rights in the darkest corners of the world.”

– Ban Ki-moon, UN Secretary-General

The Universal Periodic Review (UPR) is a unique process which involves a review of the human rights records of all UN Member States.

Now that the Socialist Republic of Vietnam is a member of the UN Human Rights Council, it must abide by international standards on basic rights.

In advance of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam’s UPR on February 5, a group Vietnamese and international human rights organizations and activists will shine a spotlight on the most egregious human rights abuses in Vietnam today.

Being active is a state of mind, not of the physical body. Do you agree?

Let’s show how social activism can trigger positive change! Hope to see you there!
