ISTANBUL PROTOCOL

OHCHR remains committed to assist States to eradicate torture and ill-treatment, to
implement international human rights standards effectively and to place redress for
victims, including rehabilitation, at the centre of their efforts. I therefore encourage
States and non-State actors, civil society, individual practitioners and everyone
concerned in preventing and protecting against torture and ill-treatment to use the
new edition of the Istanbul Protocol. In particular, I invite States to make the Istanbul
Protocol an essential part of training for all relevant public officials and medical
professionals engaged in the custody, interrogation and treatment of persons subjected
to any form of arrest, detention or imprisonment. I hope that, through collaborative
and collective efforts, we can combat and overcome one of the biggest challenges of
our times and build a better and safer future for humanity.
