A/HRC/22/32 also been provided to national authorities to conduct mapping and assessments of prison facilities, such as the cartography of prisons in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Through the deployment of Government-provided corrections personnel, the collocation and mentoring programmes in the prison facilities have led to enhanced capacity of national prison personnel on prison management. D. International Labour Organization (ILO) 24. ILO provides training on a regular basis to familiarize national labour court judges, legal professionals and legal educators with the key human rights principles of the ILO Recommendation No. 200 (2010) concerning HIV and AIDS and the World of Work and to promote implementation of its provisions. In 2011–2012, training on the key principles of Recommendation No. 200 was provided to judges, lawyers and magistrates in Brazil, China, India, Liberia and Senegal. In 2012, ILO trained labour judges and magistrates in Cameroon and Senegal. In addition, an in-depth training course was held for 25 high-level labour court judges from Botswana, Malawi, Nigeria and South Africa in the context of a course focusing on gender equality and the application of international instruments, including international labour standards. The training course also addressed the issue of procedural safeguards that protect the rights of persons living with HIV. E. International Organization for Migration (IOM) 25. In order to improve and support the protection of the rights of migrants, IOM is working closely with national Governments to strengthen their justice systems. In the projects and programmes aimed at capacity building, IOM assists Governments in developing and implementing migration legislation and procedures consistent with applicable international and regional standards. The objective is to strengthen both the capacity of Governments to govern migration more effectively and consistently with the rule of law, and training in international law, including human rights, for those working directly with migrants, such as police, judges, prosecutors and border management officials. 26. In some areas, such as counter-trafficking, IOM provides technical cooperation activities to build capacities of both government and civil society institutions to better address the challenges posed by human trafficking. Relevant examples include, for instance, Colombia, where IOM implemented a project named “Technical Assistance to the Administrative Reparation Programme” with the goal of supporting the Government of Colombia in carrying out a programme, which aims to assist victims of illegal armed groups with compensation and provide them with ease of access to the reparation process. In Guatemala, IOM has established a series of trainings on trafficking for more than 600 judges in Guatemala. Furthermore, IOM oversees a broader regional programme for migrants in Mesoamerica. The initiative offers similar trainings for judges in Central American countries and technical cooperation to Governments, and promotes dialogue, exchange, and sharing of information and best practices. 27. In Nicaragua, IOM implemented the “Supporting Regional Integration through Improved Migration Management in Central America” project to combat and prevent trafficking and support victims’ reintegration. In collaboration with the Anti-Trafficking National Coalition, IOM also helps to prosecute traffickers and promote the participation of an active community and private sector to strengthen the local network in order to defend victims of trafficking and provides assistance for institutional capacity-building in Nicaragua to ensure victims’ access to justice. 8
