Good to see the US House of Representatives block H.R. 9495 which would have given the Treasury broad and unilateral powers to strip civil society organisations of their tax-exempt status when they are accused of being “terrorist supporting”. aclu.org/press-releases…


As we all process the outcome of the US elections and how we personally go forward, I thought this call to action is both thoughtful and useful: lawfaremedia.org/article/no-rec…


Here’s a great example from South Sudan of creative thinking on how to support public service leaders and positive change: thedawn.com.ss/2024/10/25/sou…


Join us in the online launch of our report for the Swedish gov’s Expert Aid Group:“External Support to Constitution Building Processes” (Oct31) where we explore questions of what works & ask how can we nurture the norms of democracy and the rule of law. eba.se/en/seminars/ho…

A great podcast on modern mediation: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the…


It is the first time an EU agreement has been annulled for the legal doctrine of self-determination upholding central principle of consent.

A hugely important decision from the EU Court of Justice upholding the doctrine and principles of self-determination in Int’l law. Time for negotiations on that long-promised, but never delivered public vote?

#ECJ: The 2019 EU-Morocco trade agreements regarding fisheries and agricultural products, to which the people of Western Sahara did not consent, were concluded in breach of the principles of self-determination and the relative effect of treaties 👉 curia.europa.eu/jcms/jcms/Jo2_…



Is Mauritius’ territorial acquisition of the #ChagosIslands legal? And will other states recognise it as such without the consent of the people from those islands?

Looks like another blow to upholding international law on self determination. Are we in an era where in the UK human rights are considered “just too sensitive” and diplomacy is entirely based on transactional foreign policies? @ChagosOfficial @ChagosUK

UK agrees to give up sovereignty of remote Chagos Islands to Mauritius, in historic deal over one of its last overseas territories bbc.in/4eN2Mm5



Take a moment to listen to the vision and brilliance of the great thinker and teacher Prof Mahmoud Ould Mohamedou. He is sadly missed: graduateinstitute.ch/communications…


Our report for the Swedish government’s Expert Aid Group (EBA) is out. We explore important issues in this time of international democratic advocacy and #backsliding: External Support to Constitution Building Processes – eba.se/rapporter/hur-…


Mediators from Thailand and Qatar condemn Israel’s assassination of Haniyeh as an attack on negotiations and the option of peace talks.Political killings don’t make anyone safer. We all need to do what we can to defend international law and keep the difficult paths to peace open.

The assassination of Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in Iran "will make negotiations and de-escalation more difficult." reuters.com/world/middle-e…

“We must urgently find our way back to peace.” - @volker_turk at the opening of #HRC56 today


An innovative example of a “homegrown” legal pathway to independence? “An unusual example of independence constitution-making in terms of content and - possibly - legal authorisation.”

Self-determination movement should be watching the post-referendum process in Bougainville - Papua New Guinea where a genuinely participatory and locally-owned process of constitution-making could lead to a peoples' declaration of independence: constitutionnet.org/news/voices/de…



The next UK gov should make support for conflict resolution central to all its foreign policy full-stop. The knowledge, experience & capacities are available, and the change is long overdue. chathamhouse.org/2024/06/next-u…
