1. This proposal seeks funding to enable the research project to take a unique opportunity with the potential for major international impact, to assist international partner organisations (in particular the United Nations and the global organisation for parliaments, the Inter-Parliamentary Union) in the finalisation of the text of a set of Principles on Parliaments and Human Rights and to take the final steps towards their adoption by the UN Human Rights Council in June and, possibly, the UN General Assembly in September. The Bingham Centre for the Rule of Law, where the PI (Murray Hunt) is Director, will act as the host institution for the duration of the proposed next phase (May to October 2018). 2. Following a resolution of the UN Human Rights Council in June 2017, the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights ("UNOHCHR"), working with the Inter-Parliamentary Union ("IPU"), has drafted a set of Principles on Parliaments and Human Rights. The draft Principles will be the subject of a validation exercise in June 2018 in Geneva, involving parliamentarians from a number of countries, and will be included in a Report to the UN Human Rights Council to be considered during its 38th session in Geneva in June. If adopted by the UN Human Rights Council, there is the further possibility that the Principles might be considered by the UN General Assembly during its meeting in New York in September 2018, which would greatly enhance their normative status as a set of global principles for parliaments worldwide. 3. The adoption of a set of internationally agreed Principles and Guidelines on the role of parliaments in relation to human rights and the Rule of Law has been one of the principal impact objectives of the project since 2012. The PI has been consulted by UNOHCHR on the draft Principles and invited to take part in the validation exercise in Geneva. The purpose of the funding sought in this proposal is to enable the project's research team to play a full part in what it is hoped will be the final stages in the adoption of the Principles as an internationally agreed set of norms. 4. Three previous phases of the project have been generously funded by the AHRC, without which the project could not have achieved such a level of influence, and the potential to have such a major impact internationally.

1.该提案寻求资金，使研究项目能够利用具有重大国际影响潜力的独特机会，以协助国际伙伴组织（特别是联合国和全球议会组织，各国议会联盟）在最后确定一套《议会与人权原则》的案文时，采取最后步骤，争取联合国人权理事会通过这些原则。6月的理事会，可能还有9月的联合国大会。宾厄姆法治中心，PI（Murray Hunt）担任主任，将在拟议的下一阶段（2018年5月至10月）担任主办机构。 2.根据联合国人权理事会2017年6月的一项决议，联合国人权事务高级专员办事处（“人权高专办”）与各国议会联盟（“伊普”）合作，起草了一套《议会与人权原则》。原则草案将于2018年6月在日内瓦接受验证，来自多个国家的议员将参与验证，并将纳入提交给联合国人权理事会的报告，供6月在日内瓦举行的第38届会议审议。如果获得联合国人权理事会通过，联合国大会2018年9月在纽约举行的会议还可能审议这些原则，这将大大提高其作为一套全球性议会原则的规范性地位。 3.自2012年以来，通过一套关于议会在人权和法治方面作用的国际商定原则和准则一直是该项目的主要影响目标之一。联合国难民事务高级专员办事处就《原则》草案征求了公众参与者的意见，并邀请其参加在日内瓦进行的验证工作。本提案寻求资金的目的是使该项目的研究小组能够在通过《原则》作为一套国际商定的规范的最后阶段充分发挥作用。 4.该项目的前三个阶段得到了澳大利亚人权委员会的慷慨资助，没有这些资助，该项目不可能取得如此大的影响力，也不可能在国际上产生如此重大的影响。自2010年以来该项目活动的完整摘要可在线查看https://www.law.ox.ac.uk/research-and-subject-groups/parliaments-rule-law-and-human-rights-project
