New functionality of the One-Stop Shop for the monitoring of the implementation of standard-setting instruments
The One-Stop Shop for the monitoring of the implementation of standard-setting instruments has just been updated to include the status of the ongoing consultations for 2024-2025
This new functionality includes the list of reports received by the Secretariat in the framework of the 2024-2025 exercise. It allows Member States to obtain information on the status of ongoing consultations, both per normative instrument and per country.
It is recalled that as part of the general monitoring of the implementation of standard-setting instruments of UNESCO, the Committee on Conventions and Recommendations of the Executive Board (CR) invites at each of its sessions Member States to fulfil their legal obligations under Article VIII of the Constitution of UNESCO regarding periodic reports on the action taken upon the conventions and recommendations.
Created at the initiative of the members of the CR Committee, this One-Stop Shop aims at enabling Member States to find out about the various ongoing consultations on the implementation of the 2 conventions and 17 recommendations monitored by the Executive Board in a single place, and to be redirected directly to each of the platforms concerned, thus constituting a "one-stop shop" for the monitoring of standard-setting instruments.
Launched in March 2024 by the Office of International Standards and Legal Affairs on the occasion of the 219th session of the Executive Council, this One-Stop Shop is currently being developed with the financial support by the Government of the Swiss Confederation.
