II. Formulation of the plan Data collection 1. 1) Collection of background information In order to get a better picture of domestic and international human rights trends, the NHRC referred to the medium-term strategic plans and priority tasks formulated by the UK, Australia, South Korea, and other countries, the five major topics selected by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), as well as the major human rights issues identified in the Executive Yuan’s National Human Rights Action Plan (2022-2024), and the implementation status of the Commission’s own 2021/2022 annual strategic plan. 2) Clarification of the relationship between the NHRC’s strategic plan and the government’s National Human Rights Action Plan In order to clarify the distinct roles and functions of the strategic plan and the National Human Rights Action Plan, the NHRC collected data from the UK (Scotland), Australia, and South Korea. These countries take a top-down approach in their national human rights action plans, which address a wide scope of human rights issues and cover a variety of disadvantaged groups and human rights issues. The strategic plans of these countries’ national human rights institutions, on the other hand, mostly focus on the operation of the institutions themselves from the perspective of their mandate regarding human rights protection and promotion. In conclusion, the roles of the two plans are different. 11
