UPR 2014 Turkey

Freemuse, Siyah Bant and the Initiative for Freedom of Expression welcome the opportunity to contribute to the Second Cycle of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) process of Turkey. Our organisations’ focus is on Turkey’s compliance to its commitments under international human rights instruments relating to freedom of expression, creativity and the arts, as well as guarantees under its own Constitution, and to recommendations accepted by Turkey during the first cycle of the UPR in May 2010.
