Capacity Assessment Manual for National Human Rights Institutions Under the partnerships strategy, the NHRI should develop more strategic engagement with the media, possibly including regular dialogues with the media as part of a NHRI-media partnership for human rights. The engagement with the media should be directed to: • increasing the media’s understanding of international human rights law and standards • bringing to public attention human rights situations of concern in the country, particularly those of women and other historically disadvantaged groups • promoting the NHRI’s views, reports and recommendations and building support generally for its work.
