Guidance Note of the Secretary-General on Racial Discrimination and Protection of Minorities  •  19 Minority Issues and Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance, and the ILO supervisory bodies—regularly address racial discrimination and protection of minorities. They, together with findings of related regional mechanisms, open important opportunities for active and concrete engagement of the UN system, and in particular UN country presences, in these issues. For example, in the context of UPR, country presences and other UN actors involved should make sure that racial discrimination and protection of minorities are adequately covered in the dissemination of information, in contributions to the compilations of UN information and in other support they provide to UPR process, including to the follow-up to UPR outcomes. Similarly, UN country presences can play an important role in supporting the implementation of, and regular follow-up to, recommendations of special procedures mandate holders and treaty bodies. UN efforts to advance participation of civil society and other stakeholders in these processes should also be designed and implemented in a manner that facilitates participation of representatives of minorities and others working on racial discrimination and minority issues, including by supporting translation of recommendations into minority languages. 58. UN entities should also participate in and facilitate global and regional dialogue on racial discrimination and minority issues with an emphasis on sharing best practices, for example by contributing to the work of the UN Forum on Minority Issues and by supporting follow-up to its thematic recommendations.
