In addition to providing our own submission, Every Casualty Counts worked with numerous members of our Casualty Recorders Network (CRN), and other casualty recording initiatives, to provide further evidence to the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) study on the impact of casualty recording requested in 2022.
The CRN submissions below reflect the experiences of organisations across the globe from Ethiopia to Somalia, Haiti to Pakistan, Honduras to Ukraine, and beyond. They demonstrate the important impacts casualty recording can have in upholding a wide range of human rights, both directly and indirectly. They also illustrate the ways in which casualty recording can assist in monitoring implementation of international humanitarian law, and improve humanitarian responses to unfolding crises.
This information was highly valued and mentioned in the OHCHR study just published in May 2023.
