A/HRC/39/53 procedures of the Human Rights Council, national human rights institutions, civil society organizations, representatives of victims, other practitioners and academic entities. 23. Human rights and the State obligations that stem from them are dynamic and progressive. The Special Rapporteur will identify in a continuous manner updated aspects of each of the four elements of the mandate, including new jurisprudence from relevant international, regional or domestic entities, and good practices that he deems important to share. 24. The content of the right to the truth and of what is expected from the proper functioning of truth commissions, the parameters of justice and the scope of measures of reparation and guarantees of non-recurrence cannot be devised in exactly the same way today as they were understood when the first transitional justice processes were implemented. 25. Much of this progress made has been the result of the work done by international and regional human rights monitoring bodies, and by related advocacy efforts of civil society actors. In order to comply with the above-mentioned objective, the Special Rapporteur will reflect and draw on the analysis of transitional justice processes carried out by the relevant bodies of the United Nations and regional organizations. Naturally, the development of the mandate must be in harmony with the human rights system of which it is part, ensuring cross-fertilization and the prioritization of a “pro persona” perspective as hermeneutical method. On this basis, the Special Rapporteur is keen to keep stakeholders up to date on the most recent developments. 26. Transitional justice situations are diverse and do not have the same origin; some processes derive from situations of armed conflict, others from authoritarian regimes, or a combination of them. There may also be other forms of violence, or specific and particular situations in a State that give rise to the application of measures of transitional justice, which do not precisely fit in the above-mentioned categories. 27. The Special Rapporteur therefore deems it important to assess whether different situations can, or indeed must, give rise to different solutions under the broad spectrum of transitional justice measures, and how they can have an impact on each of the pillars of the mandate and its comprehensive approach. 28. For example, in situations of post-conflict transitional justice, it will be essential to address, through an array of public policy measures, the structural causes that gave rise to or allowed the conflict. Such causes are often linked to situations of extreme poverty, diverse forms of discrimination or denial of individual or collective rights. This constitutes an area of interest for the future substantive work of the mandate; in particular, exploring how to undertake transitional justice processes that do not continue to foster or deepen stigmatization and discrimination. 29. In this vein, the Special Rapporteur also undertakes to work with Member States initiating or undertaking transitional justice processes, by means of an interactive and open dialogue and in the spirit of full cooperation, to technically advise and assist them to carry out such processes in compliance with international human rights law, in the design and consolidation of peace and security, centred on a “pro persona” perspective and aimed at building and strengthening robust and sustainable societies based on the rule of law. V. Preliminary outline of areas of interest to the Special Rapporteur 30. Beyond the commitments regarding the discharge of the mandate made in the section above, the Special Rapporteur would like to highlight key areas of interest that he deems priorities as he takes on the mandate and that he intends to develop and assess throughout his mandate. These areas relate to a broad array of issues, such as those at the core of the transitional justice field and cross-cutting questions, but also adjacent areas where similar challenges are posed. 5
