Greatly disturbed by the reported detention of at least 11 WHRDs in #Egypt following a protest in solidarity with women in Gaza and Sudan. They should be released immediately Permanent Mission of Egypt in Geneva 🇪🇬 🇺🇳

I wrote to the Saudi govt about Manahel's case in December srdefenders.org/saudi-arabia-c…
Saudi's treatment of WHRDs remains appalling, Manahel should be freed immediately

The deadline was extended until April 29th! Great opportunity for land and environmental WHRDs

Human Rights are women's rights and women's rights are human rights

We join the call for the immediate release of #WHRDs arrested in Cairo for demonstrating in support of #Gaza & #Sudan outside the offices of UN Women
after reportedly being attacked by UNW security forces! The @UN must press for their immediate release & initiate investigation.

🎉 Exciting news! Congratulations to our #WHRDs mentee, pamba juma, for being featured in People Daily magazine! Her commitment to closing the gender gap in Mombasa is truly inspiring. She's currently serving as the Executive Director of Kama Si Mama Nisingesema CBO. Click👇read more.

Honored to join this roundtable conversation with two women human rights defenders from Colombia, who shared their perspectives on what the Colombian government (and international community) needs to do to fully achieve total peace in the country, including protecting WHRDs.

Thank you Mary Lawlor UN Special Rapporteur HRDs for your continued advocacy on behalf of #WHRDs , including #Ulfatkhonim Mamadshoeva, #Pamiri #minority WHRD from #Tajikistan !

The #Taliban abducted woman protester #ManizhaSediqi from her home in October 9, 2023, and her fate remains unknown. The Taliban's attacks on civic actors, especially #WHRDs , continue with impunity due to a lack of principled and consistent international response.

Amazing conversations going on!! Femtorship event organised by Canada in Kenya, Somalia and Uganda & Akili Dada to honour & celebrate activists & young Women Human Rights Defenders (WHRDs) who continue to speak up & stand up for women.
