We work with partners around the world who are working in incredibly hostile and precarious environments. Our thoughts are with our colleagues @mena_hra @Skoun_org in Lebanon right now, who are facing constant danger as Israel carries out airstrikes on the capital city of Beirut.

A new, strong report by the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Right to Health @drtlaleng launched today at the Human Rights Council, endorses harm reduction as an effective approach to protect the health of people who use drugs.

[Harm Reduction International @HRInews]

Reports suggest that the Govt of Tonga is considering extending the death penalty to drug-related offences.

Along with @amnesty @ADPANetwork @cpjp_org_au
@JWMFInc @PGAction @WCADP, we call on the Govt of Tonga not to extend the death penalty to drugs. https://t.co/Si4ENYlvMz

In 2023 at least 471 people were hanged for drug charges in Iran. the United Nations Office on Drug and Crime @UNODC which cooperates with Iran in combating drug trafficking, has not only remained silent about the sharp hike in drug executions, but signed a new agreement with the Islamic Republic in May 2023. In addition to legitimising the state’s use of the death penalty, this cooperation also leads to more executions through financial aid and equipment. A UN entity must not be complicit in drug executions in Iran #StopDrugExecutions

.@AnnFordham, ED of @IDPCnet makes a strong call from the 190+ network of global NGOs for a #CeasefireNOW in Palestine at #CND67

The international drug policy community will not be complicit with an ongoing genocide, and demands similar solidarity to that given to Ukraine 👏👏👏

On the Indonesian elections -@HRInews @a_larasati12 reflects on Prabowo's embrace of nationalist rhetoric, noting nationalism is often a pretext for more militaristic drug policies https://t.co/jgq0MKKZvW

[Harm Reduction International @HRInews]

35 countries still retain the death penalty for drug offences. This is a violation of human rights law. It must be abolished. #HumanRightsDay2023

[DrugsDevHub @dev_drugs]

🤝 Human rights and #harmreduction are not separate ideals but intertwined principles that reinforce each other. When we prioritize the rights of people who use drugs, we create spaces for compassionate care, reduce harm and ensuring access to services. #HumanRightsDay2023

[Harm Reduction International @HRInews]

On #HumanRightsDay2023, we celebrate the incredible work of the lawyers & activists of the Lawyering on the Margins Network. They advocate for access to justice and the protection of the rights of the most vulnerable and marginalised groups in society.

While more countries abolished the #DeathPenalty in 2022, its use for drug offences is going up.

After a historic decrease in confirmed global executions for drugs in 2020, countries resumed executions at an alarming level in 2021 & 2022. https://t.co/ZRE3bD8GQu
