<p>In recent years the Eswatini Government has made a number of positive legislative
changes, with respect to the human rights of its citizens. These include the Sexual
Offences and Domestic Violence Act, which was signed into law in July 2018. However,
the human rights situation in Eswatini remains troubling and we regularly raise our
concerns with the Swazi authorities. The UK was a full participant in the Eswatini’s
Universal Periodic Review, which took place in at the Human Rights Council in Geneva
in 2016, where a series of recommendations were made. We continue to press for an
improvement in the Human Rights situation in Eswatini, including the implementation
of these recommendations.</p>
