A/HRC/34/74 Fund had received a total of $11,201,283 ($3,144,098 specifically earmarked for the Voluntary Fund, $5,179,932 to be allocated to specific country projects on technical cooperation, and $2,877,253 allocated to the Fund as un-earmarked funds). The Fund provided resources for technical cooperation programmes designed to build strong human rights frameworks at the national level in 27 regions, countries and territories through 13 human rights advisers (in Chad, Kenya, Madagascar, the Niger, Papua New Guinea, Paraguay, the Republic of Moldova, the Russian Federation, Rwanda, Serbia, South Caucasus (Georgia), Sri Lanka and Timor-Leste); 10 human rights components of peace missions (in Afghanistan, the Central African Republic, Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea-Bissau, Haiti, Kosovo,3 Liberia, Libya, Somalia and the Sudan (Darfur)); and four country/standalone offices (in Bolivia (Plurinational State of), Mauritania, Mexico and the State of Palestine). 52. Through the Fund, the Office has facilitated efforts made at the country level to incorporate international human rights standards into national laws, policies and practices, including through follow-up to recommendations made by international human rights mechanisms, and contributed to the establishment and strengthening of national structures, institutions and capacities to ensure adherence to these standards. Strengthening the administration of justice, including support in increasing access capacities for individuals and groups facing discrimination and exclusion, and increasing capacities to promote gender equality and women’s rights, have also featured prominently in numerous programmes receiving support from the Voluntary Fund. The establishment and functioning of responsive national human rights institutions compliant with the Paris principles and human rights education programmes continued to receive support. United Nations resident coordinators and country teams have also seen their human rights capacity strengthened by the deployment of human rights advisers. Detailed information on income and expenditure under the Voluntary Fund, its financial status in 2016 and a list of donors and contributors are annexed to the present report (see annexes II – IV). 53. The Board continues to emphasize the importance of ensuring sustainable increased contributions to OHCHR and to the Voluntary Fund. 3 Reference to Kosovo should be understood to be in full compliance with Security Council resolution 1244 (1999) and without prejudice to the status of Kosovo. 15
