At least 350 transgender and gender-diverse people have been murdered over the past year, according to the Trans Murder Monitoring Project @TGEUorg.

For more than a decade, we have seen Hungary's increasingly anti-democratic government erode the rule of law and dismantle the institutions that protect people's rights.
@iskrakirova discusses countering authoritarianism in Hungary:
On November 15, 1884, the Berlin Africa Conference opened & paved the way for Europe to expand its colonial domination & exploitation across Africa.
140 years of failed European reckoning w its colonial legacies call for a decolonial conference.

A resolution adopted by Germany's Bundestag on curbing antisemitism & protecting Jewish life could negatively impact civil society & free expression. Germany’s concern about antisemitism is justified but its approach risks undermining rights https://t.co/RX96hUzXWG

#Syria is NOT safe for returns.
The only reason why some Syrians have crossed back into #Syria is because #Lebanon has become even less safe for them.

It is with great sadness that I learn of the death of my longtime @HRW colleague Joe Stork. He played a key role in guiding our work in the Middle East and North Africa for decades. He was a warm, skillful, and deeply committed man. https://t.co/889BDsqgQW
