International humanitarian law (IHL) sets out rules for once war happens and, it is built on three principles: Distinction, proportionality, and precaution.

Wars will ALWAYS have limits.

"The global consensus on human rights is crumbling under the weight of authoritarians, strongmen and oligarchs," @UNHumanRights chief @volker_turk warned the @UN Human Rights Council at the opening of its 58th session in Geneva.

Decades of human rights progress are under strain. We must all act to make sure rights remain fundamental to our world.They are not just about thought leadership; to be effective, human rights require leadership from the heart, rooted in facts, the law & compassion.#HRC58 @UN_HRC

[International Maritime Organization @IMOHQ]

🌊 For seafarers, the ocean is more than water—it’s their workplace. It supports millions of jobs in shipping, search & rescue, maritime administration, and beyond.
Let’s support the people who work on ships by promoting their wellbeing and protecting their rights.

[Volker Türk @volker_turk]

As 2025 begins, it’s a moment to reflect on last year’s challenges, learn from them, and move forward stronger together. My thoughts are with colleagues working courageously in the hardest conditions. Amid tension & polarisation, our work matters. Warmest wishes to all this 2025.

In armed conflicts, access to food is often disrupted, leaving millions facing hunger. Crops, livestock, and water sources are destroyed, and food aid struggles to reach those in need.

Access to food should not be a luxury.

Now in UN Security Council, briefing and discussion on the situation in Central Africa. SRSG is now discussing the need to increase funding to protect one of the "lungs of the earth," states concern regarding a number of "unconstitutional changes of government" in the region.

In the past 13 years, we have registered 35,000 cases of people who have gone missing in Syria. Behind every case is a family’s pain. We call on all parties to prevent the destruction of crucial records.

Despite notable progress on #GenderEquality, women still earn on average 20% less than men globally.

We demand equal pay for work of equal value.

[Volker Türk @volker_turk]

Over half of the world's population still do not have access to essential health services, while marginalised groups are denied care due to bias, underfunding & neglect. On #UniversalHealthDay I urge governments to invest, remove barriers & ensure UHC for all.

[Volker Türk @volker_turk]

Rape, forced marriage and sexual slavery are horrors inflicted on women and girls in conflict to terrorise communities, seize resources, and control territory. Stop using women's bodies as battlefields. Support survivors. End impunity. #16Days
