A fresh mandate for the European Union\u2019s special representative for human rights is an opportunity to heighten efforts by the EU and its member states to significantly strengthen policies and actions on behalf of justice for international crimes and promote respect for the laws of war, a coalition of nongovernmental organizations said today.<\/p>\n

On February 28, 2019, Eamon Gilmore, a former Irish foreign minister, was appointed as the new EU special representative for human rights. The post was initially created in 2012 to \u201cstrengthen the effectiveness and the visibility of the EU\u2019s human rights policy.\u201d In negotiations to renew the mandate, EU member states showed an interest in strengthening support for international humanitarian law and international justice. In a first step towards that aim, states added new language to the special representative\u2019s mandate to highlight the office\u2019s role in advancing and implementing EU commitments in these areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast year the EU and its member states marked the 20th anniversary of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court by vowing to use both internal and foreign policy tools to support the fight against impunity,\u201d said Virginie Amato, Europe regional coordinator at the Coalition for the International Criminal Court. \u201cWhile more is needed, member states\u2019 emphasis on justice in renewing the special representative\u2019s mandate sends a signal that they are looking for ways to deliver on that promise.\u201d<\/p>\n

The special representative\u2019s new mandate has added importance given the magnitude of challenges at a time of grave violations of international law, impunity for crimes, and efforts by some governments to undermine international institutions and mechanisms. The United States government under the Trump administration severed ties with the International Criminal Court (ICC) in September 2018, threatening retaliatory action should ICC investigations reach United States nationals or the nationals of US allies.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the proliferation of international crimes has meant expert efforts to promote respect for the laws of war and the development of tailor-made justice solutions are more needed than ever. International accountability mechanisms for Myanmar and Syria are examples of recent innovations to advance justice for atrocity crimes.<\/p>\n

A group of nongovernmental organizations, including the Coalition for the ICC, Human Rights Watch, the International Federation for Human Rights, No Peace Without Justice, Open Society Justice Initiative, Women\u2019s Initiatives for Gender Justice, and the World Federalist Movement \u2013 Institute for Global Policy, had\u00a0previously urged<\/a>\u00a0the EU to establish a dedicated special representative for international justice and international humanitarian law. They consider a dedicated special representative necessary to provide greater visibility and consistent and coordinated action in these key areas, in response to alarming human rights violations amounting to international crimes that are taking place around the globe. The European Parliament has called for a dedicated post since 2011, including, most recently, in its\u00a0annual human rights report<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The EU High Representative and member states eventually agreed instead to limited changes to the mandate of the existing EU special representative for human rights. While the previous mandate provided some scope for addressing international justice and international humanitarian law, the revised mandate now makes a more explicit reference to the\u00a0EU\u2019s decision<\/a>\u00a0on the ICC. Other key tools available to the special representative include the EU \u00a0Action Plan<\/a>\u00a0to follow up on the Decision on the ICC, as well as\u00a0EU guidelines<\/a>\u00a0on the promotion of compliance with international humanitarian law and\u00a0a toolkit<\/a>\u00a0aimed at supporting national prosecutions of international crimes.<\/p>\n

\u201cStrong EU leadership is needed more than ever as the terrain for delivering justice and respect for international law is getting more and more difficult,\u201d said Lotte Leicht, European Union director at Human Rights Watch. \u201cAdvancing justice for atrocity crimes is not cost-neutral. The EU and its member states need to significantly increase the capacities of the office of the new special representative to allow him to implement his mandate to the fullest.\u201d<\/p>\n

The EU special representative for human rights already had a broad mandate but limited means. Making the most of an expanded mandate will require added human and financial resources, as well as political backing from the EU High Representative and EU member states at the highest level of government, the groups said. The EU and its members should ensure that adequate resources are provided to the new special representative and his team. They should also keep under review whether a dedicated position may be necessary in the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to engaging with and providing all possible support to the special representative in implementing his vital mandate,\u201d said Antoine Madelin, director of international advocacy at the International Federation for Human Rights. \u201cGiven the valuable contribution that civil society organizations, victims and survivors can make in setting new priorities and goals for justice and human rights, it is of utmost importance that they are thoroughly consulted by the special representative.\u201d<\/p>\n
