UATC webinar on policing, Launch of the Policy Paper Addressing torture and other ill-treatment in the context of protests

Register now

All too often, the repression of protests is characterised by levels of violence that are not permissible under international law and standards that prohibit torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment and punishment. Grounded on the pressing need to take action, locally and globally, the United Against Torture Consortium (UATC) will launch a policy paper that highlights urgent measures that States should take to respect and protect the right to be free from torture and other ill-treatment in the context of protests.
