Human rights in Nauru : ウィキペディア英語版 | Human rights in Nauru Nauru is a small island country in the South Pacific. With a population of 9,322 it is the world’s least populous independent republic.〔(CIA World Factbook: Nauru )〕 Nauru’s government operates under its constitution, part two of which contains ‘protection of fundamental rights and freedoms.' The Human Rights Council (UNHRC) carried out Nauru’s Universal Periodic Review (UPR) in January 2011. The review was generally favourable with only a few areas of concern. ==Human rights treaties== Nauru became a member of the United Nations on 14 September 1999.〔(Member States of the United Nations )〕 Of the nine core human rights treaties Nauru has ratified or acceded to four of them- the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), the Convention Against Torture (CAT),and the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) along with the First Optional Protocol were both signed on 12 November 2001 but are yet to be ratified.〔(International/Regional Agreements, Conventions and Treaties: Nauru )〕 Nauru stated that the burden of reporting, specifically the financial cost, was a significant factor behind their low rate of participation in international human rights instruments.〔(Report of the Working Group on the Universal Periodic Review: Nauru, para 20 )〕 Due to Australia’s use of the Nauru Detention Centre for housing asylum seekers many states recommended in the UPR that Nauru ratify the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees. Nauru also accepted recommendations to ratify the ICCPR and CEDAW but these have not yet been acted upon. The signing process was begun on 17 June 2011.〔(Brisbane Action Web: 'Nauru Signs Refugee Convention' )〕 and it was ratified on the 28 June 2011. Nauru also acceded to the OPCAT on 24 January 2013.
