"""The UPR Academic Network’s collection explores the UPR's evolution over three cycles, its role in strengthening democratic governance, and fostering States accountability. A must-read for human rights advocates seeking to use this international mechanism to advance the promotion and protection of human rights for all segments of society domestically"". - Mona M'Bikay, Executive Director, UPR Info “This research and academic analysis on the UPR Mechanism’s effectiveness is most welcome, in order to keep improving this particular UN tool, of universal reach and general acceptance or legitimacy, which necessarily complements the national and international efforts by different stakeholders, not only the States, and the work of regional human rights systems, when available. The national integral focus of the UPR is a mobilizing force in itself, that of course needs to be matched with the good faith and political will of States, to be more effective.” - Ambassador Laura Dupuy Lasserre, Former President of the UN Human Rights Council (2011 – 2012)"
