In this episode of Perspectives, we are delighted to share an interview with the new UN Special Rapporteur on torture, Dr Alice Edwards.
Appointed in July 2022, she is the first woman to hold the mandate.
Often described as the “global conscience on torture”, her mandate includes conducting country visits and visits to places of detention; receiving communications from individuals alleging torture or other ill-treatment; and preparing reports and recommendations for the United Nations on substantive issues.
Through this, and by working constructively with States, the Special Rapporteur has the potential to drive significant changes to prevent torture and ill-treatment and promote redress for victims.
In this interview, Dr Edwards shares her priorities for the mandate and describes the importance of torture prevention efforts, including the new Méndez Principles on Effective Interviewing.
