A/HRC/13/26 38. A fundamental component of Action 2 and its follow-up mechanism has been the placement, at the request of resident coordinators, of human rights advisers in all regions of the world. Eighteen advisers, mandated to support United Nations country teams to mainstream and integrate human rights into their programmes and activities have been provided by OHCHR. In addition to working with the country team, these advisers have provided technical assistance on human rights issues to Government ministries and national human rights institutions. 39. Direct support was also provided during 2009 to several United Nations country teams, in Azerbaijan, Belarus, Cambodia, China, Georgia, Indonesia, Serbia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, and Uruguay, to assist in integrating human rights into preparation of their United Nations Development Assistance Frameworks. OHCHR also cooperated with the United Nations System Staff College and the United Nations Development Operations Coordination Office to provide training and induction to newly appointed resident coordinators and agency country representatives. As a contribution to the ongoing United Nations reform efforts on system-wide coherence, in November 2009 my Office convened a workshop during which “Delivering as One” pilot country teams shared experiences and identified good practices and lessons learned in mainstreaming human rights and supporting national efforts on human rights capacity-building. 40. OHCHR has paid increasing attention to supporting efforts to mainstream human rights into national policies, particularly in the context of country-led poverty reduction strategies and national Millennium Development Goals, in accordance with the Member States commitment at the 2005 World Summit. At the request of Governments, OHCHR supported country-level piloting efforts in Haiti and Liberia aimed at strengthening human rights perspectives in national development planning and monitoring process.
