20. Concerning the fourth strategic goal, which is entitled (Disseminating awareness of human rights principles among civil society organizations and the business sector); the NIHR organized, and will continue to organize, educational programs on human rights and business targeting civil society institutions, and to develop guidelines to ascertain that human rights are respected in the business sector. In addition, the NIHR held a national forum on integrating human rights principles into business enterprises and a workshop to increase the awareness of human rights defenders and civil society institutions on business enterprises, while promoting the application of the concepts of universal principles of human rights, workers rights, the environment, and combating corruption by the business sector and civil society institutions. Fourth: Interaction with international events and days 21. The NIHR, during the past years, has interacted with international events and days pertaining to human rights in the community by issuing statements in this regard. Perhaps the most important are its statements on the occasion of World Health Day, International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, World Book and Copyright Day, World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development, World Environment Day, World Day against Child Labor, World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, United Nations’ World Refugee Day, Twentieth Anniversary of the United Nations High Commission for Human Rights, International Day in Support of Victims of Torture, International Day of Victims of Enforced Disappearances, International Day of Democracy, International Day of Peace, International Day of Nonviolence, World Teacher’s Day, World Habitat Day, World Food Day, International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, United Nations Day, International Day for Tolerance, International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, International Day of Persons with Disabilities, International Anti-Corruption Day, and Human Rights Day. The NIHR’s statements, as a whole, aim to introduce these occasions and international days to the public and inform them of their importance, as well as the associated practical reality at the national level. Fifth: Publications in the area of human rights 22. Aiming at enriching the scientific aspects and knowledge on human rights topics, the NIHR has proceeded with its effort in issuing the “Human Rights Culture Series” to publish academic legal literature related to human rights. This legal series fully realizes the role of the NIHR in promoting and disseminating the culture of human rights by highlighting the most important rights and fundamental freedoms that are widely practiced by individuals, clarifying the true state of local legislation and whether it is in line with the pertinent international human rights standards, and placing it within the reach of individuals, including researchers, academics, lawyers, law enforcement officials, judges, members of the Public Prosecution Office, members of the Council of Representatives and Shura Council, university and school students, civil society organizations, and human rights activists, with the purpose of introducing these rights and freedoms to them and enabling them to enjoy and exercise their rights to the full. 32
