A/HRC/42/31 62. OHCHR broadcast six videos to raise awareness of specific articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Khmer and telling stories of Cambodians and why these rights are important to them. The videos are related to arbitrary arrest and detention, the presumption of innocence, the right to nationality, the right to education, duties to the community and the rights to life, liberty and security. 10 OHCHR also produced videos and human interest stories in Khmer and English illustrating some of the impact of the Office’s work, including “Forced to move: a story of resettlement in Cambodia”, “Free at last: OHCHR Cambodia supported the release of 13 people held in excessive detention years after they completed their sentence” and “A step forward: on Cambodia’s process of indigenous identity recognition”. 11 The OHCHR Human Rights 365 radio programme, managed through the Cambodian Centre for Independent Media, consisted of 15 interactive radio talk shows on a variety of topics with guest speakers from Government, civil society organizations, businesses, United Nations entities and other experts. OHCHR also participated in radio programmes organized by partner NGOs. 63. The Office commemorated key United Nations and international days, including International Women’s Day, International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples, United Nations Day, Human Rights Day and Labour Day. Social media products for International Women’s Day, produced in partnership with the United Nations country team, reached over one million views on Facebook. 64. OHCHR, together with the country team, launched a three-month campaign to celebrate the seventieth anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The campaign began in September 2018 and continued until the end of December 2018 and included human rights education programmes with schools in three provinces, online and offline materials and a large celebratory event to mark Human Rights Day. The overarching message for the campaign was “I am a human rights champion” and the target audience was Cambodian youth. The campaign used traditional and social media to promote human rights education and understanding of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. A music video promoted freedom of expression, diversity and inclusion, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, income or other factors and reached over one million views on Facebook. 12 Among other social media products, a social media influencer promoting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights attracted 81,000 views and a social media influencer promoting the rights of persons with disabilities attracted 90,000 views. 13 VII. Mainstreaming human rights within the United Nations framework 65. OHCHR continued to promote the mainstreaming of human rights in the work of international and civil society organizations. OHCHR contributed to the work of the United Nations country team by leading, with UN-Women, the results group on participation and accountability and by being active in other results groups to mainstream human rights in the drafting of the United Nations Development Assistance Framework 2019–2023. OHCHR continues to co-chair the results group with UN-Women during the implementation phase of the Framework. OHCHR chairs the human rights theme group of the United Nations country team, coordinating United Nations actions on specific themes. In 2018, the theme group was instrumental in preparing a joint submission for the third universal periodic review of Cambodia, which was published in July 2018. The theme group has also worked to raise awareness of human rights concerns in the Prey Speu Social Affairs Centre, including concerns of arbitrary detention and treatment of persons with disabilities in the Centre. 10 11 12 13 12 See https://bit.ly/2HIj4zK; https://bit.ly/2HI3eFF; https://bit.ly/2wsOunn; https://bit.ly/2Mg20pm; https://bit.ly/2K67254; and https://bit.ly/2KbCdMe.
