Parallel report to the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) 2015

This is the individual stakeholder submission by the Danish Institute for Human Rights to the Universal Periodic Review of Denmark, 24th session January/February 2016.

In this stakeholder report to the UPR of Denmark, DIHR has selected seven priority areas of particular relevance to the promotion of human rights in Denmark. In the selection of recommendations for the UPR, DIHR has prioritised recommendations that are specific and time-bound and thus suitable for the UPR process.

The thematic issues covered in this report are:

  1. NHRI mandate covering the Faroe Islands
  2. National action plan on the rights of the child
  3. Prohibition of discrimination due to disability, religion, age and sexual orientation
  4. Right to vote for persons under legal guardianship
  5. Coercion in psychiatric treatment
  6. Access to interpretation in Danish courts
  7. Solitary confinement of children and adults
