A/HRC/4/96 page 14 society organizations, UNIOSIL provided training to over 230 members of human rights committees in six districts. These committees are umbrella grouping of human rights and pro-democracy organizations operating at the level of the districts. In partnership with UNIOSIL, they are playing an essential role in monitoring the human rights situation in their respective areas as well as sensitizing local communities on human rights. 40. UNIOSIL also organized a training workshop for about 30 media practitioners to familiarize them with democratic values, human rights standards and basic tenets of the rule of law with the view to strengthening their capacity to incorporate these in their reporting. Extensive awareness-raising campaigns on the TRC final report were conducted throughout the country, to promote reconciliation and healing. A total of 149 workshops on the findings and recommendations of TRC were conducted (one in each of the 149 chiefdoms in the country) in close collaboration with district Human Rights Committees. A summarized version of the TRC report was published, used and distributed at these workshops. Workshops were also organized for members of churches and affiliate organizations on the “Role of religious leaders in the implementation of the TRC recommendations and human rights issues”. 41. A training workshop was organized for local musicians and artists aimed at deepening their understanding of the TRC findings and recommendations. Out of this training, a concrete agreement was reached between UNIOSIL and seven recording studios under which they will produce musical CDs on the TRC and its recommendations. By the end of 2006, the production of those CDs was still in progress. Similar arrangements were concluded with local theatre groups to produce 30 episodes of radio dramas on certain TRC provisions, including the findings and recommendations on children, women, governance, rule of law and human rights. Musical tunes were also produced which are now being played on the United Nations Radio. These activities were intended to deepen public understanding of the causes of the conflict and the way forward to prevent its repetition. 42. Capacity-building activities included participation in and facilitation of sessions of the workshops organized jointly by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees/National Commission for Social Action (UNHCR/NacCSA) for government officials and civil society organizations on the Refugee Bill of Sierra Leone; presentation on the “National and Regional Human Rights Monitoring and Documentation” in relation to child soldiers at the workshop organized by the West African Network to stop the use of child soldiers under the theme: “Capacity-building programme on human rights, international humanitarian law and human security”. The Human Rights and Rule of Law Section also participated in trainings on the human rights dimension of peacekeeping operations for the Sierra Leone Police, as well as presentation at the International Military Advisory and Training Team (IMATT) Course on Mission preparedness for the Republic of Sierra Leone Armed Forces (RSLAF) high officers. 43. UNIOSIL Human Rights and Rule of Law Section continued to provide support to the human rights work of non-governmental organizations (NGO), including the Human Rights Committees in Freetown and in the districts as well as human rights groups in academic institutions, including Njala University College and Fourah Bay College. UNIOSIL Human Rights and Rule of Law Section also provided training to the United Nations Country Team to reinforce and sustain the capacity to mainstream human rights in their programmes and activities. In this regard, funds have already been secured under the Action 2 Global Programme which aims at strengthening human rights-related United Nations actions at country level.
