Annex III – point 1 – indent 5 a (new)
Fostering new cross-regional synergies and networking among local civil society and between civil society and other relevant human rights bodies and mechanisms so as to maximise the sharing of best practises on human rights and democracy, and create positive dynamics. The focus will be placed on the protection and promotion of the principle of universality, identifying and sharing best practices on all human rights, whether civil and political, or economic, social and cultural, and fundamental freedoms, i.e. when addressing major challenges, including sustainable security, the fight against terrorism, migration and shrinking space for NGOs. This will require an enhanced effort to bring together a broad range of human rights related stakeholders (e.g. local civil society and human rights activists, lawyers, academia, national human rights and women rights institutions, syndicates) from different countries and continents who together can create a positive narrative on human rights with a multiplying effect.
