Honored to join athletes and allies in NYC to champion #LGBTQI+ inclusion in sports. Together, we’re breaking barriers and affirming that all women and girls, regardless of gender identity or expression, belong in sport. #InclusionInSport #EqualityForAll
Last week, athletes & allies joined together in NYC to celebrate #LGBTQI+ inclusion in sports & show that trans, gender-diverse & intersex athletes belong in sport 🏳️⚧️💛💜 Thanks to @ILGAWorld, @OutrightIntl, @CMI_CountMeIn & all who helped make this such a powerful day! 🙌
Thrilled to support the cultural rights of LGBTI persons in sports! Every person deserves the freedom to participate, thrive, and be celebrated for who they are, both on and off the field. Let’s build inclusive spaces where diversity in sports can shine. tinyurl.com/yre94dyz
The UN Special Procedures are essential to the #HRC ’s mission, shining a light on critical global issues. Troubling to see @FranceskAlbs face accusations for fulfilling her mandate. Independent voices advocating for justice and accountability must be supported, not stifled.
I am deeply disappointed that various western governments and diplomats appear to have been misled by spurious, recycled allegations against me, just as I prepare to present my latest report to the #UNGA next week. I am profoundly committed to human rights for all people - how…

🚨Watch this space for our upcoming guidance document on women and girls in the family ⬇️
"The context of the family has too often been a source and site of discrimination and stereotyping of women and girls," @UN_WGDAWG expert Haina Lu told the @UN Human Rights Council. She encouraged States to empower "women and girls in their choices in family life". #HRC57
Today a group of states announced an important first step toward holding the Taliban accountable at the International Court of Justice for their violations of women's rights. Read our full statement below👇

A real privilege to get to interview @DorothyEstrada from the @UN_WGDAWG as part of @EUni_Well funded project on gender equality! We talked about the dangerous road from gender backlash to gender apartheid. tinyurl.com/yak2t4rm
In light of #EqualPayDay, we must redouble our efforts to close the gender pay gap worldwide. As emphasized in our 2023 report on gendered inequalities of poverty, women are entitled to equal pay for equal work—now is the time to end wage discrimination! #GenderEquality
#EqualPay is a human right, yet women, especially women of colour & marginalized groups still face pay discrimination. On #EqualPayDay, we call on governments to ensure equal pay, tackle discrimination & address power dynamics perpetuating inequality. Real change is overdue.
📢 Join us in this session on #gender apartheid on 13 September - with Afghan women @DrSimaSamar and @azadahhrm, @SR_Afghanistan and @UN_WGDAWG member and former Chair @DorothyEstrada Let us all keep alive the struggle for women's and girls rights in #Afghanistan!
We stand with the @SR_Afghanistan in defending the #humanrights of women and girls in #Afghanistan. We must stay strong to fight opression, persecution and #gender apartheid.
#Afghanistan: "Since I reported to this Council in June, the Taliban has further intensified its violations of the human rights of the Afghan population, particularly women and girls," said @SR_Afghanistan Richard Bennett at the @UN Human Rights Council's 57th session. #HRC57
Femicide exists in many societies as violence and discrimination against women and girls continue to be accepted, tolerated and justified. We urge States to prevent femicide and punish perpetrators. africa.unwomen.org/en/stories/sta…
#Sudan: UN experts warn of the devastating lack of adequate care for survivors of sexual and gender-based violence. All parties to the conflict must immediately cease attacks against women first responders & human rights defenders. ➡️ ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
Sports bodies must pushback against the Taliban’s ban on women & girls in #Afghanistan participating in all sports - UN experts call for decisive action. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
🇭🇹#Haiti: We are concerned by the lack of meaningful inclusion of women in the political transition process, including in the Transitional Presidential Council and ministerial positions. To ensure a successful transition, women and girls’ voices must be front and centre.
