Examination of the establishment and functioning of the Human Rights Council and the Universal Review Process
Evaluation of the developments in the area of the Responsibility to Protect and continued efforts to implement the right to development
Inclusion of issues such as the push for compensation for slavery, experiments with democracy in a number of countries and the decisions of international judicial and human rights organs on conceptual and protection issues
