The governments of under developing and developing countries were also held responsible for poor mechanism to ensure implementation on legislations and laws pertaining to avoid violation of human rights and failure to ensure basic necessities of life for the under-privileged sections of the society.

Dr Amin Shahid, Chairman IHRC, underscored the need to identify the flaws for which the rights and laws of women and children are not being implemented and why did the state actors fail to implement those laws. The delegates pointed out that amidst prevailing challenges across the world, “our globe is in a fix” and a mechanism should be devised to address the threats and issues of women trafficking and domestic violence should be tackled effectively.
