As States begin deliberations at the 60th session of the United Nations Human Rights Council (HRC) on a new resolution promoting human rights and accountability in Sri Lanka, INGOs call on delegations to support a strong resolution which renews the mandate of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR)’s Sri Lanka Accountability Project (OSLAP) for a minimum of two years. This is essential for it to carry out its work in gathering evidence for future accountability processes, which is critical in the absence of credible domestic efforts to advance accountability for human rights violations and abuses and crimes under international law.
