Highlight from #CEDAW2024. Listen to Bina Ramanand from @FamilyFrontiers as she urges the M'sian Govt to amend laws for #genderequality in #citizenship rights, retroactively. She also calls for a halt on regressive proposed amendments that could worsen #statelessness.

Japanese lawyers filed a lawsuit challenging the #naturalisation process of #refugees in Japan which doesn't conforms to the spirit of Article 34 of the Refugee Convention. I'm glad to have a chance to observe the trial tomorrow at Tokyo District Court!
