With ICC prosecutor asking for arrest warrants for the Taliban leader and his chief justice, isn’t it finally the right time for establishing a strong accountability mechanism for Afghanistan? Like a fact finding mechanism? @UN_HRC
Our interim Director, Mr Timory opened the Peace Panel today focused on the role and value of a UN backed constitution making process for peace. Is the UN equipped with right tools to bring peace to Afghanistan?
This is huge. European Court of Justice says “it is sufficient to take into account her nationality and gender alone." concerning female asylum seekers from Afghanistan🇦🇫.The ruling in itself recognizes #gender-apartheid in Afghanistan.

Today’s #HRC side event was a timely test on how we can use the treaty bodies in bringing accountability in Afghanistan. The experts’ views were extremely helpful and instructive.

Afghanistan: The Role of the Treaty Bodies.
#Afghanistan | With the so-called Vice and Virtue Law, the #Taliban take another step in depriving half of Afghanistan's population of their #humanrights and fundamental freedoms.
The defense of human rights, particularly women's rights, is a priority for #Switzerland in Afghanistan.
Olympic athlete Manizha Talash was disqualified from the Paris 2024 Olympics after she competed wearing a cape that said “Free Afghan Women.”
Talash should not be punished for promoting gender equality. Read more in @astroehlein's Daily Brief:

While humanitarian and health support is required by the people of Afghanistan, hosting a Taliban minister is unnecessary. Remember who you are taking pictures with. Remember the women of Afghanistan.
Earlier this week, I met with Health Minister Noor Jalal Jalali to discuss the health situation in #Afghanistan. We also discussed the need to ramp up the work to #EndPolio, and respond to other outbreaks across the country.
@WHO will continue to support all people in Afghanistan, especially women and children, so their health needs are met.
