“Imagine you’re in bed 4am, floor begins to shake violently. Doors open, glass shatters, walls sway violently, & sounds of screaming and collapsing come from outside.” Sr Annie Demerjian re horror Syrians in Aleppo experienced during earthquake. @acn_uk providing #emergency aid

A very happy New Year to GERIS Fellows, project partners and all the amazing stakeholders we had an opportunity to meet for the past two years.

We wish for the world to become a more peaceful place in 2023! No hate, no spite and respect for humanity globally.

Delighted to see the @EU_Commission has appointed Frans van Daele as its new Special Envoy on Freedom of Religion or Belief!

Looking forward to supporting the new Envoy's work on ensuring #FoRB4All as part of @SFCG_EU's Religious Engagement team.

A New Zealand television interviewed me about Indonesia's new criminal code. The new law will violate women's rights, LGBT rights, religious freedom as well as freedom of expression and association in Indonesia https://t.co/PCKKPx86Lv

#BBC announced cuts @BBCWorldService budget by £28.5m/yr from April ’23; 382 posts (almost 1/5) to go. It’s news lifeline for 35% of global population living in places where free expression “in crisis”+ UK’s best #softpower. Short-sighted govt decision at critical time for #truth
