Geneva, November 10, 2025 (LANA) – Libya will present its national report to the Human Rights Council in Geneva tomorrow, Tuesday, as part of the Universal Periodic Review of the human rights situation in UN member states.

In this context, Taher Al-Baour, Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, held a preparatory meeting today, Monday, in Geneva with the national team tasked with preparing the national report, pursuant to Prime Minister's Decision No. 117 of 2025.

During the meeting, Al-Baour, who heads the Libyan delegation, stressed the importance of being fully prepared for the review of the human rights situation in Libya, reflecting the state's commitment to improving and promoting human rights in accordance with international conventions.

An official source at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs told the Libyan News Agency (WAL) that the review of the national report will take place tomorrow, Tuesday, November 11, from 2:30 PM to 6:00 PM, Geneva time (GMT+1). The source noted that this report is an international mechanism adopted by the United Nations to assess the human rights situation in member states through national reports submitted every four to five years, with the aim of highlighting national efforts and international commitments in this field. The Human Rights Council explained that Libya will be examined for the fourth time by the Council’s Working Group on the Universal Periodic Review (UPR). It noted that Libya is one of fourteen countries that will be reviewed by the Working Group following previous reviews in November 2010, May 2015, and November 2020.

The Council added that the UPR Working Group comprises the 47 member states of the Human Rights Council, noting that any member or observer state can participate in the country review.

The Council clarified that the documents on which the review is based include the national report submitted by the State, information contained in reports by experts and independent human rights groups known as special procedures, human rights treaty bodies, and other UN entities, as well as information provided by other stakeholders, including national human rights institutions, regional organizations, and civil society groups.

The Council indicated that the three countries serving as the Troika Rapporteurs for the review of Libya’s report are Georgia, the Netherlands, and Sudan.
