[Gabriela Bucher @Gabucher]

States are increasingly unable or unwilling to guarantee rights. Activists the world over breathe life into the UDHR and give hope for a world in which we can make peace with one another and the environment. @FundHumanRights we believe in the power of activism to change the world

[Gabriela Bucher @Gabucher]

In a world at war and with growing injustices and inequalities and a raging climate crisis we discussed at #ParisPeaceForum23 the Universal Declaration of Human Rights signed 75 years ago in Paris - little reason to celebrate? @AgnesCallamard @amnesty @FundHumanRights @LegalPact

[Sylvain Biville @sbiville]

#Gaza “A ceasefire is the only solution. Because it’s impossible to explain we want to fight terrorism by killing innocent people. There’s no justification to attacking civilians. Babies ladies & old people are bombed. I urge Israel to stop.”

@EmmanuelMacron @BBC #CeasefireNOW

UN Special Rapporteur @MaryLawlorhrds is exactly right: human rights defenders are essential to realizing the promise of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

But these frontline activists face a growing number of challenges.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Civilians in Gaza desperately need core services and supplies.

We need rapid, unimpeded humanitarian access.

We need food, water, medicine and fuel now.

We need it at scale and we need it to be sustained.

[Gabriela Bucher @Gabucher]

We have been horrified by the attacks in Israel. Now the terrible and seemingly limitless bombing and destruction of Gaza and its population is deepening suffering. Evacuation orders coupled with the complete siege need to stop urgently to end this catastrophic cycle of violence

I spent my first months as an Afghan refugee in a New York homeless shelter with my mother and brother.

Now, I'm back in New York, but this time as a tech startup founder, studying at @Columbia.

Education is the fundamental right of every Afghan girl. Give them the chance to learn and they'll reach heights beyond imagination. I'm a testament to that.

I was honored to share my journey at the @ColumbiaGS Scholarship Gala. Incredibly grateful to be a part of this amazing community.

Thank you for having me.

The power of companies and governments to destroy lives is matched by their power to protect them. What’s missing is a commitment to our shared humanity, and to a safer, healthier future. Human rights defenders in the crosshairs https://t.co/ztTEwte7AG via @oxfamamerica @Oxfam

[UN Human Rights @UNHumanRights]

.@volker_turk launches call for a human rights economy that benefits everyone. We must move away from economic policies that fail to address the basic needs of millions. Join us in calling on Govts to build economies that put people & planet first. #HR75 https://t.co/sLUI4lWEal
