UN–OHCHR: Universal Periodic Review 2026
Agenda | Resolution | Free Submission Service | Deadline: 4 October 2026
WALKING THE TALK OF UNITY: SUBMIT TO UPR BEFORE OCT 4
Attention: Civil Society
The time for talk is over. For the next 4 months, all civil society — trade unions, churches, women’s groups, youth, NGOs, registered or unregistered — must unite on THE one action: Flood the UN with authentic UPR submissions.
AGENDA:
Why UPR 2026 Is Different
Eswatini is already under sanctions. China, a UN Security Council member, removed tariffs for all African countries except Eswatini. This is punishment for ties with Taiwan that exist only to sustain the 1973 Decree – Absolute Monarchy. If China can impose sanctions for politics, the UN Human Rights Council can impose sanctions for human rights violation – June 2021 Civil Unrest crime against humanity.
We put this on the agenda: UN HRC Sanctions Not Suggestions.
THE RESOLUTION:
Authenticity is required: civil society scheduled meetings for UPR
Every submission must list human rights violations by Government and demand enforcement:
1. Killings & Political Repression: massacre of Emaswati during June 2021. Assassination of Human Rights Defender Thulani Maseko. House arrest of union leaders.
2. 1973 Decree: Absolute monarchy, banning of political parties, May Day 2026, and national dialogue.
The government admitted to UPR 2021 that “UN ideals are not implementable” under this Decree.
Economic Repression: Chinese
Tariff Sanctions
Precedent that the world already uses consequences, thus the demand for UNHRC smart sanctions — travel bans + asset freezes on officials who command repression.
Accountability: Repeal 1973 Decree
As a precondition for trade normalization. UN Special Rapporteur on Self-Determination for Eswatini.
