UN police magazine 10 - January 2013
Media Caption
The 10th edition of the UN Police Magazine features a special focus on Timor-Leste, which closed in December 2012. It describes how the UN Police supported national authorities throughout the United Nations' engagement in the country, starting with UNAMET in 1999 and ending with UNMIT in 2012. From personal stories from Timorese and UNPOL officers to reports on community policing, SGBV and the use of civilian police experts, this magazine reflects on lessons learned throughout more than 12 years in Timor-Leste. Also included in this edition is a foreword from Deputy Secretary-General Jan Eliasson, as well as a farewell from outgoing Police Adviser Ann-Marie Orler, who served as head of the Police Division for nearly three years.

The United Nations policy on Human Rights Screening of United Nations Personnel (11 December 2012) outlines the principles and methodology by which the United Nations will pursue human rights screening of personnel. It outlines processes by which (i) Member States who nominate or provide personnel to serve with the United Nations are requested to screen their personnel and to certify that they have not committed, or are alleged to have committed criminal offences and/or violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law; (ii) individuals who seek to serve with the United Nations are requested to attest that they have not committed, or are alleged to have committed, criminal offences and/or violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law and, where necessary, to provide relevant information; and (iii) the United Nations Secretariat will establish an information exchange mechanism, such as a focal point network, and procedures to support the exchange of information on prior human rights conduct of candidates/nominees for the purpose of screening.
