Universal Periodic Review

« zurück

This UPR tool reflects the global recommendations made to Austria by all countries world-wide during the Universial Priodic Review process (UPR) at the UN Human Rights Council and their current status of implementation. The League coordinates a significant part of Austrian civil society in the UPR process. See this LINK for an overview about this process.

The recommendations can be filtered in the menu below by human rights topics, SDGs, proponent states etc. And also a search function is available.

We welcome your comments and suggestions at upr@liga.or.at.

Remarks to progress by Liga (last modified Dec 31, 2024):

Individual legal protection in prisons is primarily regulated by the Prison Act. Legal protection in the event of restrictions of liberty outside of prisons is guaranteed in particular by the Accommodation Act and the Residential Homes Act. There are no plans to further strengthen individual legal protection. There is no sufficiently prepared data on the practical exercise of legal protection.
