The Voluntary Technical Assistance Trust Fund supports the participation of least developed countries (LDCs) and small island developing states (SIDS) in the work of the United Nations Human Rights Council (HRC) and its subsidiary mechanisms. It accomplishes this by: (1) funding travel and accommodations for government officials to participate in HRC sessions; and (2) offering training and fellowship programs for government officials from SIDS and LDCs. The Trust Fund is administered by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), and was established in 2012 by the HRC.
