A joint report with contributions from DefendDefenders’ Technology team assesses Internet freedom and the digital resilience of civil society.
DefendDefenders and CIVICUS voice their disappointment over South Sudan’s Universal Periodic Review process, with the government choosing to accept only four out of 33 recommendations made to improve the human rights situation.
DefendDefenders is seeking an experienced Project Lead to work on DATA4CHAN.GE, an initiative that aims to build the capacity of Kenyan, Ugandan and Tanzanian human rights organisations to collect, analyse, and visualise data.
Together with 14 South Sudanese civil society organisations, DefendDefenders urges the UN Human Rights Council to strengthen the mandate of the Commission on Human Rights in South Sudan include the conduct of independent investigations and collection and preservation of evidence to ensure accountability for human rights violations.
Although Burundians continue to face human rights violations committed with impunity, the Government has been unwilling to cooperate or engage with the UN Commission of Inquiry. In an Oral Intervention DefendDefenders calls on all members of the UN Human Rights Council to remind Burundi of its obligations and preserve the credibility of the Council.
