64 HANDBOOK FOR NHRIs ON WOMEN’S RIGHTS AND GENDER EQUALITY Several mandates are explicitly related to women’s rights, including the Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially women and children, the Working Group on the issue of discrimination against women in law and in practice, the Special Rapporteur on violence against women, its causes and consequences, and the Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants. NHRIs can support the work of the special procedures by: • Encouraging their governments to extend standing invitations to all thematic Special Procedures; • Providing objective information on the situation of women and gender equality in their country to all relevant mandates; • Providing information during the preparation of, course of and follow-up to country visits, including by distributing findings broadly at the national level, advocating for their implementation, and providing feedback to mandate holders on implementation of recommendations. • Flagging relevant (draft) laws to the special procedures and their analysis of gender aspects of the law and its impact on women’s rights; and • For NHRIs with A-status, attending sessions of the Human Rights Council and make an oral statement during the interactive dialogue, or considering doing so by video link. Treaty Reporting States are required to submit reports on the implementation of treaties they have ratified or to which they have acceded. NHRIs can engage at different stages of this process. They can contribute to their governments’ reports, including through consultation and commenting; they can draft their own reports; they can make presentations during the pre-session working groups and provide written information prior to the formal examination of a  State party report.
