The Human Rights Due Diligence Policy (HRDDP) is a system-wide framework mandating UN entities to ensure that support provided to non-UN security forces aligns with the UN Charter and its human rights obligations. Initially developed for peacekeeping missions due to their frequent collaborations with non-UN forces, the HRDDP has expanded to encompass all UN entities engaging with such forces, including in peacebuilding initiatives. In 2015, the HRDDP Review Group issued comprehensive guidance on its implementation across the UN system, catalyzing efforts to integrate and operationalize the policy.
This policy brief draws from the 2024 Peacebuilding Fund (PBF) Thematic Review, which focused on synergies between human rights and peacebuilding in PBF-supported programming. One of the research questions within the Review was to explore how HRDDP was being applied across the 92 projects within the Review sample. This policy brief summarizes those findings, and the Review’s policy recommendations as they relate to HRDDP. To provide further background, this policy brief also incorporates additional research conducted for the Review.
