🔵 Synergy for Justice is committed to advancing human rights, justice, and accountability. After careful consideration, we have decided to withdraw our presence from X (formerly Twitter).

Recent shifts on the platform have increasingly allowed the spread of misinformation and harmful narratives that undermine the very principles of equality and dignity we uphold.
#justice#twitter#x
At Synergy for Justice, we’re dedicated to breaking down these barriers. Through community programmes and justice tools, we are addressing the roots of stigma and supporting victims and survivors in their journey toward justice.

🔵 The stigma surrounding conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) has deep, harmful impacts on victims and survivors, often silencing their voices and barring access to justice.

So far, we’ve held two impactful discussions, on 13 September and 23 October.
These two roundtables explored themes from understanding trauma and sexual violence against women, men, and children to enhancing skills in trauma-informed and ethical documentation.

🔵 UN Special Rapporteur on Torture Report on Sexual Torture in Armed Conflicts
This Friday, the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture, Dr. Alice Edwards @DrAliceJEdwards, addressed the General Assembly on the critical issue of #sexualtorture in armed conflicts.

Sexual torture involves severe pain and suffering inflicted by a person acting in an official capacity, intentionally for purposes such as interrogation, punishment, or discrimination—fitting the four core elements of torture outlined in the UN Convention Against Torture.
🔵 Our latest blog highlights Israel’s escalating violence against Palestinians, arguing that what’s happening now goes beyond self-defence—it’s genocide. With thousands of lives lost, it’s time the world recognises these atrocities for what they are.
