@Endfemicideke@NYC_YouthVoice@MelvineObollah @BaloziZaha @NyaKabs@rachaelmwiks We need an intersectional and mulitisectoral approach to reach ALL Women because a one size fits all approach invisibilizes the expriences of Sexual and Gender Minority women when addressing GBV and Femicide

Let's engage, discuss, and forge solutions together. See you there!

We also heard from world leading human rights NGOs & a Human Rights Defender on the important role of civic society in promoting human rights.
Now more than ever, we must uphold human rights & democracy to ensure everyone receives the dignity they deserve.
Delighted to meet with inspirational human rights defenders on #HumanRightsDay and hear how important it is to defend fundamental freedoms and civic space.
As 🇬🇧 Minister for Human Rights, I had the pleasure of hosting an event at @FCDOGovUK to mark #HumanRightsDay.
@DavidLammy, @attorneygeneral, and I set out the UK's commitment to upholding and protecting human rights, democracy and the rule of law.
@Lord_Collins Becky, a Kenyan human rights defender, said there is an urgent need to fund protection programmes protection programmes for #HumanRightsDefenders & to give them platforms to voice their concerns
@lbqtcommunity
@Lord_Collins Thank you for hosting such an excellent - if rather chilly - event this afternoon. Our hearts were warmed by talk of various worthy human rights initiatives around the world.
Every 11 minutes, partners and family members killed a woman intentionally in 2022 and 2023.

Maverick Aoko has REPORTEDLY been whisked to Uganda.
I strongly BELIEVE that Farouk Kibet is RESPONSIBLE for Aoko's ABDUCTION and persecution.

The LBTQ community faces numerous challenges, Becky shares some of the experiences they have had while working to empower them.

At the #dublinplatform 2024, my call is for more robust political support by UN offices, especially UNC, to take a stand in protecting HRDs. We need to increase collaboration. #raiseyourvoice
Amnesty demands the release of @husskhalid and others arrested for convening a peaceful Mashujaa Day assembly. Protest is a legitimate form of free expression under our constitution. Obstructing a fundamental freedom is unlawful and criminal.
