A/HRC/32/28 example of how international commitments and recommendations can be translated into government action. 29. The OHCHR Regional Office for South America has been implementing a regional project to support the follow-up of universal periodic review recommendations through United Nations development assistance in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Peru and Uruguay. In 2015, Ecuador was added to the regional project. By integrating a national universal periodic review adviser in the United Nations Resident Coordinator offices in each of those countries, support has been provided for: (a) the establishment of national coordination bodies for reporting to United Nations human rights mechanisms and for following up on their recommendations in a holistic manner, on the basis of thematically clustered and prioritized recommendations; (b) the sharing of practices regarding the development of frameworks and benchmarks, as well as support for national efforts to monitor and report on progress in the implementation of universal periodic review recommendations; and (c) the integration of recommendations into ongoing and new United Nations development assistance frameworks as well as the implementation of programmes at the country level. Through targeted collaboration with Resident Coordinators, the Regional Office has advanced considerably in mainstreaming anti-discrimination standards. Regional strategies were shared during the regional meeting held in Chile for national universal periodic review advisors, the United Nations Resident Coordinators and other United Nations officials. Regional seminars and specific technical advice were provided for government officials and parliamentarians of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Peru and Uruguay, enhancing their capacity to follow up on universal periodic review recommendations through agreements on strategies and methodologies for clustering recommendations. Furthermore, in those same countries the capacity of national human rights institutions and civil society organizations was strengthened through numerous workshops and training sessions on strategies relating to the universal periodic review, in particular on following up on recommendations and/or preparing mid-term reports. 30. In Senegal, technical assistance was provided to the technical committee that reviewed the national action plan for the implementation of the recommendations of international human rights mechanisms, including the universal periodic review. By the end of 2017, at least 20 per cent of the reports will be substantially or fully in line with the reporting guidelines, increasing the State’s compliance with its reporting obligations to treaty bodies, as well as its participation in the universal periodic review process. 31. In Seychelles, the National Council for Children delivered training to 66 multisectoral trainers from the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Education, the department of social services and various police departments with a view to strengthening the capacity of law enforcement officials. In order to improve the State’s juvenile justice system, an analysis of current practices in juvenile justice and of the development of a standard operating procedures manual and monitoring and evaluation mechanisms was also undertaken. 32. In Solomon Islands, support was provided through the deployment of a National United Nations Volunteer in the Ministry of Justice and Legal Affairs, who worked closely with relevant government entities, civil society organizations, United Nations agencies and regional organizations in order to promote and support the establishment of an interministerial coordinating committee in charge of reporting to international human rights mechanisms. A Government-led universal periodic review task force has been established; it conducted regional consultations in several provinces, gathering information from key stakeholders. Consultations ensured an inclusive and participatory process, strengthening ownership of the process and identifying strategies for national and local responses to address the human rights gaps. 7
