Hearing disturbing news about the criminalisation of WHRDs Claire Namara, Aloikin Praise Opoloje & Norah Kobusinge for their involvement in peaceful protests in #Uganda. I'll be closely following their hearing on 15 December, and I call on the Ugandan authorities to drop the charges against them.

International Human Rights Defenders Day is a reminder that progress on human rights doesn't happen by accident. Each step forward happens because HRDs persevere, year after year, choosing to be lighthouses instead of hurricanes. We owe them an eternity of gratitude. #HRDday

🚀 New global #PeoplePower2025 report shows civic freedoms are under attack globally. A record number of countries are now rated as ‘Repressed’ and ‘Closed.’ See country ratings & data on top violations 🔴🟡🟢: web.civicus.org/PeoplePower2025

The @civicusalliance.bsky.social People power under attack 2025 shows a worrying reality of backlash in civic space around the world and a consistent closed civic space in #Togo. The #Right2DefendRights, protests and critical opinions particularly online are criminalized. #StandUp4HumanRights

📢 Protests are fundamental to democratic life. Yet across the world, peaceful gatherings are increasingly met with excessive force and dangerous weapons, which undermines freedom of expression, violates human rights and in some cases may amount to torture and other ill-treatment.

On #HumanRightsDefendersDay, UN Special Rapporteur @marylawlorhrds.bsky.social shares powerful stories of human rights defenders and why every person, everywhere, can help keep hope alive. 🎥 Watch the interview: youtu.be/yhPIO6CnfNQ

Very worried to hear that imprisoned HRD Abdoul Aziz Goma has been hospitalised in #Togo. He has been on hunger strike since 8 November, along with 36 others, to protest prison conditions & ongoing unjust detention. His weight has fallen to 50kg. I remain extremely concerned for his health.

Demain, un événement à ne pas manquer lors du Forum sur les entreprises et les droits humains !

J'ai écrit au gouvernement du #Togo à propos de l'arrestation & la détention arbitraire des défenseurs des droits humains Foly Satchivi & René Koffi Missode, ainsi que la disparition forcée & la torture de ce dernier. Je regrette que le gouvernement n'ait pas répondu. srdefenders.org/togo-arresta...
