High Commissioner Zeid Ra'ad al Hussein will be launching and presenting to Member States the UN Human Rights Appeal 2017.
In the words of the High Commissioner: the world has entered a period of profound uncertainty. More than ever, we need strong partners to stand with us. Our 2017 programme is our most ambitious to date, with our extra budgetary funding needs amounting to US$252.9 million. With support, we can undertake strong preventive work, including for early warning and the prevention of hatred, xenophobia and violence. We can promote a broadening of inclusive democratic space; advance sound migration governance; and give strong support to the grounding of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda in human rights. This is why your support is essential.

The 2017 Annual Parliamentary Hearing at the United Nations will provide parliamentary input into the UN Ocean Conference scheduled 5-9 June 2017.
The Ocean is a vital ecosystem for humanity’s sustainability. Millions of people depend on it for their livelihoods and for nutrition, yet it has never been more vulnerable.
Entitled A World of Blue: Preserving the oceans, safeguarding the planet, ensuring human well-being in the context of the 2030 Agenda the hearing provides an opportunity to reflect on SDG 14 (Oceans) and its intimate connection to other goals such as climate change (SDG 13), sustainable consumption and production patterns (SDG 12), hunger and food security (SDG 2), health risks linked to pollution, chemicals and other harmful materials (SDG 3), sustainable economic growth and employment (SDG 8), and governance and the rule of law (SDG 16).
Parliamentarians, UN officials, Ambassadors and experts will discuss these issues and their roles in safeguarding the planet and ensuring human well-being for the next century and beyond. Interactive sessions will look at the state of the oceans, consider their economic benefit and stresses, including fishery management and tourism, as well as the effects of pollution and marine debris. A final session will focus on international jurisdiction and security issues.
