A/HRC/43/37 defenders, United Nations country teams and OHCHR presences in the field. The outcome of these analyses should then be sent by the High Commissioner to the President of the Council or presented during the regular sessions of the Council. The opportunity for the High Commissioner to brief the Council could be enhanced by giving her a mandate to report at each session of the Council on early warning situations. Such reporting could be done in the form of a regional horizon scanning, focusing on risk factors and emerging crises. 64. While the Council is privy to early warning information, there has been relatively little discussion about developing its early action capacity. The type of early action to be taken should be decided on a case-by-case basis, depending on the specific country or regional context. One option could be a confidential meeting with the country concerned and/or, should the latter accept it, a good offices mission to conduct quiet diplomacy. 17 The composition of the good offices mission should be decided on a case-by-case basis and could include the President and members of the Council, special procedure mandate holders, OHCHR and representatives of regional/subregional organizations. 65. In the event of a deterioration in the situation after a quiet diplomacy mission, the options currently available for action by the Council include a presidential statement (requiring the agreement of all member States), a request to OHCHR to prepare a report, a call for a special session, or the creation of an investigative body. These last two options have only been implemented in the past after a situation had deteriorated significantly. An additional option would be to address the situation of concern by referring stakeholders to the human rights implementation facility detailed above. D. Need for upstream prevention through sustaining peace and implementing the Sustainable Development Goals 66. The consultations showed that the Council could enhance its preventive impact through more systematic synergies with efforts to sustain peace and implement the Sustainable Development Goals. Both these approaches embody upstream prevention through a strengthening of institutions that can safeguard human rights, address the root causes of human rights violations, such as social exclusion and the violation of social and economic rights, and foster reconciliation to prevent the recurrence of conflicts that can undermine human rights gains. Therefore, the Council and its mechanisms should systematically seek to tailor the results of their work towards sustaining peace and implementing the Sustainable Development Goals and feed it into the work of peace and development actors elsewhere in the United Nations. 67. Moreover, the sustaining peace and Sustainable Development Goals agendas constitute bridges between the United Nations human rights and the peace and security pillars, on the one hand, and the human rights and the development pillars, on the other. During consultations, a series of measures or initiatives were identified that could help ensure a closer working relationship between the Council and the two other pillars of the United Nations. Regarding the linkage with the peace and security pillar, it is critical that the Council continue to seek a closer working relationship with the Security Council, including through more systematic invitations to Human Rights Council mechanisms to participate in the deliberations of the Security Council. The Human Rights Council should systematize and strengthen its working relationship with the Special Adviser to the Secretary-General on the Prevention of Genocide and the Special Representatives of the Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict and for Children and Armed Conflict by inviting them more regularly to its sessions and/or requesting them, through specific resolutions, to report to it on their areas of work and activities or conduct joint activities, including joint reporting, with its 17 In 1988, the Chairman of the Commission on Human Rights conducted, along with five members of the Commission appointed following regional consultations, a mission to Cuba at the invitation of the Government in order to observe the human rights situation (Report E/CN.4/1989/46 of 21 February 1989 and Corr.1). 15
