OHCHR - Call for written submissions: Draft guiding principles for the search for disappeared persons

The Committee on Enforced Disappearance invites all interested parties to submit written contributions regarding the Draft Guiding Principles for the Search for Disappeared Persons. Principle 14.4 of the draft guiding principles refers to indigenous peoples: “In cases involving disappeared persons who are members of indigenous peoples or other ethnic or cultural groups, there is a need to consider and respect specific cultural patterns when dealing with the disappearance or death of a member of the community, which may require the use of different search rules. An effective search should involve the provision of translators of the languages of the affected groups and bicultural interpreters of their cultural patterns, whose knowledge may be a prerequisite for an effective search”.

The deadline to submit these contributions is 25 January 2019. The written contributions should not exceed 3,300 words and should be submitted in Word format to the Secretariat of the Committee at the following email address: ced(at)ohchr.org.
