"This Annual Report identifies important milestones as well as challenges that remain in human rights protection in Australia. It provides an annual reflection on Australia's progress in addressing commitments that the Government has made to protect human rights, as well as identifying emerging concerns. The report is the second in a series of annual reports that are being developed in the lead up to Australia's second Universal Periodic Review (UPR) at the United Nations (UN) Human Rights Council, scheduled for July 2015."
