A/HRC/19/49 human rights documentation and fact sheets to the Commission and reviewed the draft decree organizing its work.

OHCHR Guinea successfully assisted three local non-governmental organizations (Association des victims, parents et amis du 28 septembre 2009, Mêmes droits pour tous and the Centre mère et enfant) to apply for a grant from the United Nations Voluntary Fund for Victims of Torture. XI. Conclusions and recommendations 53. In her previous report, the High Commissioner recommended that the Government of Guinea should take steps to address the pervasive problem of impunity, reform the security sector, revitalize the judiciary and launch a transitional justice process to address past human rights abuses, including those perpetrated during the events of 28 September 2009 and highlighted in the report of the Commission of Inquiry. She also recommended that the international community should provide Guinea with the necessary support to address these issues. 54. The Government has committed to the above objectives and taken some steps to that end. In the field of security sector reform, more discipline seems to have returned to the ranks of the army and security forces; the army is reportedly no longer involved in crowd-control operations, which has led to a minor reduction in violence during demonstrations. The justice sector has started to implement the recommendations made by the Etats Généraux de la Justice with the appointment of new judges to revitalize the judiciary. Attempts have been made to establish an independent national human rights institution and a national commission on reconciliation. However, the challenges remain considerable and significant efforts are required to accelerate the pace of implementation. 55. On the basis of the above findings, the High Commissioner recommends that the Government of Guinea: (a) Take the necessary measures to combat impunity and investigate and hold accountable the perpetrators of human rights violations, in particular the crimes against humanity committed on 28 September 2009 and, in this context, ensure adequate support for the judges investigating those violations and appropriate support for the victims of them; (b) Accelerate the process for the establishment of transitional justice mechanisms, including the proposed truth and reconciliation commission, and ensure that the process leading to the establishment of such a mechanism is participatory, inclusive and in compliance with international human rights norms; (c) Establish a national human rights institution in conformity with the principles relating to the status of national institutions for the promotion and protection of human rights (the Paris Principles); (d) Develop close cooperation with civil society organizations, including women’s organizations and victims’ associations; 14
