A word from CVT’s @leonceby as detainees are freed from Sednaya: "Heartbroken and outraged after seeing the horrific images and hearing testimonies from Sednaya Prison in Syria. The brutality endured by those tortured and killed cannot go unanswered. Survivors and their families deserve justice and access to rehabilitation.” In this important moment, we appreciate the steadfast work of our partners at @sednayamissing as they care for former detainees and families.

Following @KarimKhanQC's request for Min Aung Hlaing’s arrest warrant, @FortifyRights urges @IntlCrimCourt Member States to refer Myanmar’s post-coup atrocities to the Court under Article 14 of the Rome Statute.

The Assad reign has come to an end. This presents a new dawn for #justice and #accountability for millions of #Syrians who have suffered at the hands of the Assad government. We call for a peaceful, just transition and an emphasis on pursuing and trying those most responsible for the war crimes and crimes against humanity that have characterized the last 13-and-a-half years. 👉🏼 Read LAW's statement: bit.ly/3VrcGCA

Our Executive Director, @Hassan_shire in anticipation of International Human Rights Day tomorrow, encouraged all in attendance to reflect on the theme "Our Rights, Our Future, Right Now" by considering these critical questions: What is the impact of your work on national, regional, and global issues? How do you measure your successes to shape practical solutions to global challenges? Are you countering negative stereotypes and misconceptions? Do your daily actions mobilise and reinvigorate the global human rights movement? This call to introspection reminds us of the collective responsibility to advance human rights and secure a brighter future for all. #IHRD2024 #SafeButNotSilent #HumanRights4All
