The Universal Periodic Review of the United Nations is conducted of all member nations every four years. It offers an important opportunity to measure how member nations are meeting human rights obligations, including those related to economic, social and cultural rights. It offers opportunity to pressure the government to meet fully those obligations. The best site watching the United States in this process is USHRnetwork.org – http://www.ushrnetwork.org/our-work/project/upr-universal-periodic-review
