This means we are recognised by the UN as specialists in our field and holding expertise that supports the aims of the UN. With our accreditation, we can participate in various ways, including by speaking at the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) sessions. We also hold side events, which run alongside the main UNHRC session and usually take the form of panel discussions. We often bring people from the countries we work on to give their first-hand testimonies. Victories take time, but we see them every year and praise God for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">M\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n en <a href=\"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/es\/our_work_country_un.htm\/\" target=\"_blank\">csw.org.uk\/un<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Sunday 23 October<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pray today for Dr Nazila Ghanea, who was appointed the UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief in July. This role is a key mechanism in the UN\u2019s arsenal for protecting and promoting freedom of religion or belief, and is one with which CSW works very closely. Pray that Dr Ghanea\u2019s work would bear fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Monday 24 October<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today is United Nations Day \u2013 the anniversary of when the UN Charter came into force in 1945. On this day we thank God for the good things the UN has achieved over the past 77 years, and pray that it would become even more effective in the years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Tuesday 25 October<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next month, the Human Rights Council will review the human rights situations in India and Indonesia as part of the Universal Periodic Review process. CSW submitted written evidence on both countries. Pray that our recommendations for action are accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Wednesday 26 October<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018For dominion belongs to the Lord, and he rules over the nations.\u2019 \u2013 Psalm 22:28.
