It is the only organisation focusing specifically on equipping UPR actors to fully utilise all stages of the process to improve the national human rights situation. As the leading organisation working on the mechanism, UPR Info specialises in promoting human rights through building the capacity of all stakeholders to engage in the UPR process through reporting, monitoring and advocacy. Four programmes support the realisation of the organisation's strategic plan. The organisation\u2019s extensive experience in the UPR area is unique as it addresses all human rights issues and all countries without bias or politicisation.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">About the in-country Programme<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The In-country Programme (ICP) is UPR Info\u2019s operational programme.\u00a0 Its\u00a0 chief objective\u00a0 is to support the implementation of human rights obligations and commitments in each of the ICP\u2019s target countries throughout the UPR mechanism.
