In a statement to the Human Rights Council, EHAHRDP calls on the UN and its member states to do more to prevent and respond to reprisals against those who cooperate with the UN human rights system.
Dans une intervention orale prononcée au Conseil des droits de l’homme, EHAHRDP et la Ligue Djiboutienne des droits humains expriment leurs préoccupations au sujet des violations répétées des droits humains à Djibouti, particulièrement les libertés publiques, la ratification des instruments internationaux et la mise en œuvre des engagements pris par l’Etat. Dans cette optique, nos organisations exigent de Djibouti de se conformer aux engagements pris lors de son examen.
