#GirlHumanRightsDefenders call upon the @UN to ensure structural & meaningful participation of young people in addressing the impacts of #COVID19 & building a post-covid world: "We're not waiting for justice, we're going after it." #HRC44 #HLPF @DCIsecretariat @Memorybanda75

Zes jonge kinderrechtenverdedigers roepen tijdens een online event de @UN op tot structurele participatie van jongeren over de gevolgen van en de toekomst na #corona. “We wachten niet op rechtvaardigheid, we gaan er zelf achteraan.” #GirlsAdvocacyAlliance https://t.co/KPwMmAIIJJ

Yesterday, we met two great award-winning artists! Malak (12, Libanon) & Nermin (16, Tunesia). They shared dreams and challenges children have to deal with (from living with disabilities to issues such as being deprived of education). Impressed by their art & stories #sheleads

De invallen gisteren bij 6 Palestijnse mensenrechtenorganisaties door de Israëlische autoriteiten zijn zorgwekkend.

Op 12 juli jl stelde NL & andere EU landen dat er geen bewijs is om deze orgs te bestempelen als terroristisch.

We verwachten adequate actie @MinBZ @WBHoekstra!

“Our human rights documentation and evidence-based advocacy exposing Israeli forces’ grave violations against Palestinian children has made us a target of the Israeli government for years. Sealing and closing our office will not silence us.” Khaled Quzmar director @DCIPalestine

🚨BREAKING: Israeli forces raided and sealed shut our Ramallah-area office early this morning, leaving a notice taped to the door ordering the office closed declaring DCIP an illegal organization. #StandWithThe6

"Het gaat om kinderen." Akhrat vraag terecht aandacht voor een probleem dat al jaren bestaat. Stop het verhuizen van kinderen in de asielprocedure & stel het kind centraal.

Trots op onze ambassadeur, @akhratselevani: je hebt het supergoed uitgelegd.

#HRC50 the WG on #Discrimination against Women and Girls reiterated “When girls and young women, take action to protect human rights they fall within the definition of #Humanrightsdefenders and should be recognised […] and enjoy all the legal protection”

“Het bestrijden van seksueel geweld is - én blijft- een top prioriteit. Het feit dat er tegenwoordig meer aangiftes van verkrachting worden gedaan en meer gerapporteerde gevallen voor de rechter komen is een goed teken in de strijd tegen seksueel geweld”. https://t.co/Z619kjfBx8

We call for the immediate release of professor Faizullah Jalal!

Jalal has been arrested by the Taliban in Kabul for making allegations against government departments. Jalal is an outspoken critic of the Taliban & advocate of women’s human rights.

Het is onrechtvaardig van Israël om legitiem mensenrechtenwerk en kinderbescherming van zes organisaties waaronder @DCIPalestine als terroristisch te bestempelen. Kinderen in de Palestijnse gebieden hebben recht op bescherming en juridische bijstand. https://t.co/g4PmIOePCx

[Defence for Children Nederland @DefenceChildren]

Het is onacceptabel dat legitiem mensenrechtenwerk van onze collega's @DCIPalestine als crimineel en terroristisch wordt bestempeld. We roepen de Israëlische overheid op deze onrechtvaardige beslissing te herroepen. Nederland kan niet anders dan hier stevig op aan te dringen!
