My recent article w/ @jdakwar urging the Biden administration to translate U.S. international human rights obligations into domestic policies. One idea is for the U.S. to consider establishing a National Human Rights Institution.
What a privilege it is to believe that politics shouldn’t be personal. 🧵(1/4)
"The entire Palestinian population in North Gaza is at imminent risk of dying from disease, famine and violence." – OCHA, Oxfam, WHO, WFP, UNICEF, and 10 other leading humanitarian agencies Every State in the world has a legal and moral obligation to stop this.
We the leaders of 15 @UN and humanitarian organizations urge, yet again, all parties fighting in #Gaza to protect civilians, and call on the State of #Israel to cease its assault on Gaza & on the humanitarians trying to help Statement #IASC Principals 👉 bit.ly/40pLGqx
Our new report "Substitute: the case for the external reform of FIFA" argues FIFA is unfit to govern world football. If you don't have time to read all 170 pages, here's the charge sheet in a 🧵
🚩 11 organisations including @fairsqprojects and @ALQST_En have raised deep concerns at AS&H Clifford Chance's flawed human rights assessment of the #Saudi2034bid. The global firm risks being linked to abuses which result from the tournament. alqst.org/en/post/fifa-s…
I always wondered how the 'independent human rights assessment' of Saudi Arabia's 2034 World Cup bid would give it the clean-ish bill of health required. Here is how FIFA and the Saudi partner of @Clifford_Chance did it. 🧵 tinyurl.com/3ahxjy9f
📢 New research published by our very own @Arush_Lal, @clarewenham & @justinparkhurst in International Affairs this week: (Re)constructing global health security and universal health coverage. Read it here: bit.ly/4eV6XMX @LSEHealthPolicy
🚨NEW PUBLICATION @IAJournal_CH🚨 With @ClareWenham & @JustinParkhurst, we examine how GHS & UHC have been (re)constructed. We argue these norms are not static, but rather: 💡Continuously-evolving 💡Closely-interlinked 💡Increasingly-integrated 🔗doi.org/10.1093/ia/iia… 🧵⬇️

💡Fun fact - there were serious considerations of locating the UN in the Black Hills region of South Dakota. However, b/c of the Rockefeller family's personal diplomacy they ended up on selecting NYC. #UNGA79
The UN General Assembly, which starts on Tuesday, brings scores of world leaders to Manhattan’s East Side each year. It's more of a headache than an honor for many New Yorkers who live or work in the neighborhood. nyti.ms/3XF8O0W
Beyond disappointing to see this decision by the UNC Board of Governors.
The UNC Board of Governors has elected Lee H. Roberts as #UNC’s 13th chancellor. The entire #UNC community is invited to an event celebrating Roberts' appointment at 2 p.m. today via livestream. Learn more: unc.live/4dCt7CJ
Describing VP Harris as a "DEI hire" is nothing short of a disgusting racist and sexist smear against someone who has over 20 years of experience in elected public office. Meanwhile Trump and Vance have a COMBINED 5 years in elected office.
We’ve compiled some of Trump’s biggest foreign policy lies ahead of the presidential debate — and the facts that refute them. nationalsecurityaction.org/fact-vs-fictio…
Qatar is routinely offered up as a model for labour reforms. But there are serious questions about the progress of its reform programme. Any re-establishment in law of the exit permit for domestic workers would be a disastrous step.
#Qatar Shura Council calls for reintroducing exit permits for domestic workers, threatening to undo reforms. If the motion is accepted, it would be a serious setback for the reform process in #Qatar, which claims to have abolished the #Kafala system. migrant-rights.org/2024/06/qatar-…
Qatar could reverse a major labour reform, introduced just 2 years before the World Cup, for the most vulnerable workers

🎉 My first PhD paper has been accepted for publication in @IAJournal_CH! In a forthcoming piece with @justinparkhurst & @clarewenham, we trace how global health security and universal health coverage evolved together — from distinct policy sectors to synergistic norm regimes.

Pains me to open #HRC56 w/ the cruelty of war Data gathered by my Office shows: in 2023 civilian deaths in conflict soared by 72%; the proportion of women killed doubled, children tripled Leaders can't keep pushing the limits of war & trampling rights We must restore peace now
Honored to be a part of this series w/ @RepAOC @RepMarkPocan @RepBarbaraLee @RepMcGovern @RepJayapal @WilliamHartung & @daniellebrian! The amount of $$ that goes to the Pentagon is sickening when you consider where else it could be spent. Join us in advocating for that world!✨
💥BIG VIDEO💥 As the Pentagon's budget nears $1 trillion, vital programs here at home remain critically underfunded. This week, the House votes on the #NDAA. No more blank checks for failed audits. It’s time to demand accountability from the Pentagon. #AuditThePentagon
Russian democracy activist & our senior advisor @vkaramurza was wrongfully detained and imprisoned in 2022 for criticizing Russia’s aggression in Ukraine. He was sentenced to 25 years for speaking out. Help #FreeKaraMurza and secure his immediate release: bit.ly/FreeVKM
