A/HRC/4/45 page 14 28. Further, the recent mission by the Special Adviser to the Special Representative on Sri Lanka has paved the way for open and constructive dialogue with all parties to the conflict on their obligations to ensure that the rights of children affected by the conflict in Sri Lanka are respected. The Special Representative plans to conduct field visits in the near future to other situations of concern, including the Middle East, Thailand, Nepal, the Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. 29. As part of the greater advocacy efforts by the Office of the Special Representative, a communications strategy has also been developed in close consultation with key partners. Some of the activities that have and will be carried out as part of this strategy include updating and maintaining a website that can serve as an interactive information tool for various target audiences, outreach to the electronic and print media, promotion and participation in special events on issues related to children and armed conflict, and publication of key reports and studies. Working with partners - the United Nations human rights system 30. As mentioned earlier in the report, the Human Rights Council serves as a critical “destination for action” and therefore should continue to ensure that all egregious violations against children’s rights beyond the use and recruitment of children, in all situations of concern, are brought to the attention of specific country and thematic mandate holders for their further action. The Council should also use the various special procedures, as well as its annual deliberations and resolutions, to promote advocacy and demand accountability. In this regard, the Office of the Special Representative is encouraged by the practice of a number of special rapporteurs who have incorporated a section on children and armed conflict in their reports. It is also important that they apply the standards and norms as a basis for proactive advocacy for child rights protection. The Special Representative would like to express appreciation to the special rapporteurs who have brought certain issues of concern to her attention. 31. The Office of the Special Representative also hopes that the report on children and armed conflict submitted annually to the Human Rights Council would constitute the basis for an annual review and action through the adoption of a dedicated resolution. 32. Throughout its mandate, the Office of the Special Representative has worked closely with OHCHR in creating awareness of the rights of war-affected children and the mainstreaming of their concerns in the United Nations system. OHCHR is an active member of the Task Force on Children and Armed Conflict and its Steering Committee on monitoring and reporting. OHCHR also has focal points on children and armed conflict in both its Geneva and New York offices that coordinate and collaborate with the Office of the Special Representative. 33. The Office of the Special Representative would like to continue to strengthen its strategic partnership with OHCHR in further developing the latter’s involvement in the protection of the rights of children affected by armed conflict in its dialogue and engagement with Member States. The strengthening of the human rights monitoring capacity of OHCHR within peacekeeping operations and country missions has been noted with interest in this regard. In particular, the key role undertaken by OHCHR in Nepal and Uganda to monitor and report on child rights violations
