In its submissions, Amnesty International endeavours to assess the level of implementation of recommendations made by other states in the first Universal Periodic Review (UPR) cycle. The information in this document is drawn from the submissions made by Amnesty International for the 15th session of the UPR Working Group on ten specified countries. Overall, data indicates that in the period since their first review in 2008, several states have failed to adequately address key human rights concerns despite their acceptance of recommendations to take specific action.
