A/HRC/40/46 to support the process and called for greater participation of women in discussions on transitional justice. VII. United Nations human rights due diligence policy 74. The United Nations in Libya continued its efforts to implement the human rights due diligence policy on United Nations support to non-United Nations security forces (A/67/775S/2013/110, annex).14 In its capacity as secretariat of the task force on the implementation of the policy in Libya, the Human Rights, Rule of Law and Transitional Justice Division of UNSMIL provided substantive guidance on its application and technical expertise in the evaluation of information in relation to the human rights record of potential recipients of operational support. Mitigating measures were undertaken in relation to support to the Libyan Coast Guard and the Department for Combating Illegal Migration, including increased monitoring of compliance with human rights law by recipients of support and screening to exclude anyone with a problematic human rights record, while enhancing accountability. 75. In August, the United Nations in Libya endorsed a risk assessment and adopted mitigating measures in relation to support to the Department for Combating Illegal Migration. Mitigation measures included high-level advocacy, human rights monitoring and reporting, and exclusion from training and material support of members and commanders of the Department when there are substantial reasons to suspect their involvement in human rights violations. 76. On 12 October, the United Nations in Libya endorsed a risk assessment, mitigating measures and an action plan in the framework of a joint project by UNSMIL and UNDP on policing and security. Measures included vetting of recipients of support, oversight and monitoring, and relevant training for unit commanders and other senior officers, including on human rights. The United Nations is discussing a new project that may involve operational support to the General Administration for Coastal Security by the International Office for Migration and UNHCR. VIII. Conclusions and recommendations 77. Armed groups, including those integrated under State institutions, continued to be primarily responsible for violations and abuses of international human rights law and violations of international humanitarian law in Libya. National institutions remained weak and divided and were unable and/or, in some cases, unwilling to ensure accountability or end impunity. 78. Recognizing the urgent need to bring to an end widespread human rights violations and abuses committed in a climate of impunity, the High Commissioner appeals to all parties to the conflict to cease all hostilities and support the revised United Nations action plan to end the political stalemate. 79. The High Commissioner regrets that little progress has been made in implementing recommendations of her predecessor and reiterates calls on all parties to the conflict, including those with de facto control of territory in Libya, to: (a) Desist immediately from all acts constituting violations of international humanitarian law and violations or abuses of international human rights law, including those constituting crimes under international law; in particular, they should cease 14 The human rights due diligence policy, adopted in 2011, requires all United Nations entities to be diligent in ensuring that support to non-United Nations security forces is provided in a manner that is in compliant with, and promotes respect for, international human rights and humanitarian law. This requires United Nations entities providing support to: (a) carry out a risk assessment evaluating the potential risks and benefits involved in the provision or withholding of support; (b) engage transparently with the receiving entities about the legal obligations of the United Nations and core principles governing the provision of support; and (c) develop an effective implementation framework. 13
