Summary
In the mid-2000s, I served as Chair of the United Nations Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances. The Working Group sits under the UN Human Rights Council, and consists of a five-member panel of independent experts. First set up in 1980, primarily to deal with disappearances in Latin America, since then the geographic scope of the Working Group has expanded to include tens of thousands of cases from around the globe.
