During the sixty-first session of the Commission on Human Rights in 2005, the Service moderated 19 briefings organized by OHCHR and given by special rapporteurs, special representatives, independent experts and other mandate holders. 64. For Human Rights Day, the Service’s TV and Radio Section conducted interviews with the High Commissioner for Human Rights on the theme of human rights and poverty, which were transmitted through UNifeed and sent to UN Radio in New York. In addition, following a UNTV field mission to Colombia, several pieces on human rights violations in the country were produced and distributed to global television including two features for CNN World Report. A 10-minute Special Feature was also distributed on UNifeed and Eurovision to global broadcasters. 65. Of special note was the UNTV mission to Niger in July 2005 with the Special Rapporteur on the right to food, which triggered enormous international attention and a humanitarian response. The UNTV images of the famine in the country were the first to be aired widely and were transmitted through various broadcasters, including BBC, CNN, Télévision Suisse Romande and the European Broadcasting Union. UN Radio interviews were also broadcast extensively. Subsequently, the Service’s TV Unit assembled a DVD compilation of UNTV material on the Niger famine for various United Nations agencies. Additionally, the Service’s television coverage of the Secretary-General’s subsequent visit to Niger was fed from Africa and distributed through Eurovision and via UNifeed. 66. The Geneva Graduate Study Programme, organized annually by the Service and held during the first three weeks of July, contains a segment dedicated exclusively to human rights for which substantive input is received from OHCHR. The 82 and 83 students who took part in the forty-third and forty-fourth programmes, respectively, benefited greatly from workshops and general lectures which touched upon the overarching theme of human rights. 67. The Visitors Service of the United Nations Office at Geneva covers human rights in each of its tours. The 50-minute tour devotes about 5 minutes specifically to this subject, and guides are frequently asked questions about human rights. During the reporting period, the Service organized 40 briefings on human rights for groups of students in conjunction with a guided tour, and 60 seminars that included a human rights lecture as part of an information programme on the work of the United Nations tailored to the needs of students, diplomats and NGOs.
