The United Nations Human Rights Guidance on Less-Lethal Weapons in Law Enforcement is the result of a two-year process of research, drafting and consultation led by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in collaboration with an international group of experts. Its finalization in 2019 filled a significant gap in the interpretation of fundamental human rights and the application of principles of law enforcement, providing States, international organizations, civil society and other key stakeholders with guidance on when and how to use less-lethal weapons in accordance with international law.
