A/HRC/27/59 X. Additional elements to be included in the final report 60. The present paper contains a preliminary analysis of the issues relating to the role of local government in the promotion and protection of human rights. The Committee has therefore recommended to the Human Rights Council to request it to submit a final report to the Council at its thirtieth session (see Advisory Committee action 13/4). It is envisaged that this final report would further elaborate on some of the issues, including the main challenges faced by local government in the protection and promotion of human rights, the operationalization of the concept of a “human rights city”, as well as best practices on ensuring local implementation of human rights and relevant international and regional initiatives. 17
