A/HRC/10/54 page 20 on the experience of the Actors for Change Project, conducted with OHCHR and the non-governmental organization Fahamu, and funded by the European Union. The guide is a practical tool for human rights institutions actively involved in torture prevention, stressing the importance of engaging in a global strategy. The Association presented the draft guide at the above-mentioned conference. VI. ROUND TABLES ON THEMATIC ISSUES A. Conflict prevention and prevention of torture 86. The project “Actors for change: strengthening the capacity of national human rights institutions through distance and regional training” commenced in 2005 with the aim of strengthening the capacity of human rights institutions to prevent torture and engage in the prevention of conflict, including early warning. The project ended in 2007 and was reviewed in 2008. Funded by the European Union, it was implemented by OHCHR in partnership with the United Nations System Staff College, the Association for the Prevention of Torture and Fahamu. 87. After evaluation, it was concluded that the project had exceeded its targets and been an unqualified success. A key component of the project, the Actors for Change distance-learning programme, was overwhelmingly considered a success by participants. The materials were deemed relevant, useful, challenging and clear; links with human rights practitioners were established at an early stage, encouraging the development of processional connections; the workshops provided practical and real learning experience; and some very positive stories were reported of dissemination of learning among civil society, the prison service, police and even the military. In addition, there was strong support from both the executive direction and participants for further training using this approach on different themes and for similar courses for other colleagues in institutions. B. Sixtieth anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 88. The Secretary-General launched a year-long campaign to commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, focused on “dignity and justice for all of us”. Within the campaign, OHCHR is paying special attention to the rights of people deprived of their liberty in prisons and other places of detention. OHCHR specifically designated 6 to 12 October 2008 as the Dignity and Justice for Detainees Week, and invited human rights institutions and other partners to conduct focused activities in, and/or related to, places of detention during that week and throughout 2008. OHCHR plans to compile an official report on activities of institutions carried out during the year, with case studies and personal stories, which will serve as a guide for further efforts to protect the dignity of and justice for persons deprived of their liberty. 89. Several institutions have received OHCHR funding (totalling $143,000) in connection with planned activities, which were linked to the High Commissioner’s initiative on detention. Requests for funding were accepted from institutions in Ecuador, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Mongolia, Panama, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Togo and Uganda.
