A/HRC/28/73 violations of human rights caused by acts of corruption. In that way, they would be able to have an overview of human rights violations occurring as a result of corruption. The impact of corruption on specific human rights could be analysed, and gaps in protection could be identified, including the question of compensation for damage.34 On the basis of this, new strategies that strengthen synergies between anticorruption and human rights measures could be developed in the Human Rights Council and its competent bodies. Alongside the establishment of a specific mandate on the thematic issue of the negative impact of corruption on the enjoyment of human rights, every thematic and country mandate should consider paying attention to the linkage between corruption and human rights.35 Given the wide range and the complexity of the issue, it may be appropriate to establish a five-person working group. 53. Moreover, it is recommended that examination of the issue of corruption as a possible cause for human rights violations be integrated into the universal periodic review. According to Human Rights Council resolution 5/1 and the provisions on the universal periodic review mechanism, the universal periodic review process provides the opportunity for each State to provide information about actions it has taken to fulfil its human rights obligations and to improve its human rights situation. In the universal periodic review process, particular attention could be given to the question of whether, and to what extent, human rights violations in various States are consequences of corruption. Furthermore, actions against corruption, as means of improving the general enjoyment of human rights, could be included in the universal periodic review.36 54. Also, in the framework of the complaints procedure of the Human Rights Council, specific attention should be paid to possible violations of human rights caused by corruption. The Working Group on Communications and the Working Group on Situations, which are the competent bodies to examine communications, should bear in mind the negative impact of corruption on the enjoyment of human rights. Any connection with acts of corruption or corrupt behaviour as causes of the alleged human rights violations should be indicated in the course of the examination of a communication. Also in this respect, a catalogue of criteria (as mentioned in para. 50) may be helpful. 55. There is a strong need for United Nations bodies and organizations to enter into dialogue with each other and with other international organizations dealing with anticorruption strategies. This inter-institutional approach should include, in particular, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, as the guardian of the United Nations Convention against Corruption. It is of utmost importance that all the institutions involved have a good knowledge of each other, that they share all information, and that they establish linkages between the measures that they take. The mutual consideration and integration aims at building a network in order to act more effectively in an anti-corruption alliance. 34 35 36 16 See art. 35 of the United Nations Convention against Corruption.
