Info
CIHRS was established in 1993 as an independent regional non-governmental organization working for the advancement of a deep-rooted human rights culture throughout Arab societies. CIHRS aspires to create meaningful change through the dissemination and education of human rights, regional and international advocacy, and human rights research and studies. For the past 3 decades, CIHRS utilized various vehicles including the Regional Forum for the Human Rights Movement, the Salon Ibn Rushd seminars, and similar events to disseminate human rights culture in the region. Additionally, CIHRS organized specialized training for journalists, activists, and lawyers and operated a 26-year-long human rights summer school for university students. CIHRS aspires to foster solidarity, enhance coordination and cooperation, build capacities, create strong alliances between national Human Rights NGOs, and strengthen ties between actors across the Arab region. In addition, CIHRS engages with regional and international decision makers, stakeholders, and mechanisms aiming to influence the international agenda toward human rights protection in the region. In parallel, CIHRS has continued its regional research activities, striving to bridge the information gap and lack of in-depth conversations caused by the unprecedented crackdown on freedom of expression across the region through its Annual Report on the Human Rights Situation in the Arab Region as well as the publication of research and analysis. In 2020, CIHRS compiled its publications into a free online library with 192 books and over 400 research papers. CIHRS has also published Two of the oldest journals specializing in human rights, Sawasiah and Rowaq Arabi. Today, Rowaq is a blind peer-reviewed academic electronic journal with 75 published issues containing over 700 studies on the region's main challenges to human rights reform.

#Yemen: Hundreds Held for Marking National Holiday “The crackdown on any activities that diverge from #Houthi beliefs and ideologies is yet another violation in the extensive record of #humanrights violations they have committed with total #impunity". CIHRS and Human Rights Watch call for the immediate release of those detained solely for exercising their right to freedom of assembly & speech by #Houthi forces.

#اليمن: موجة اعتقالات جديدة دون تهم ولا أمر اعتقال.. #الحوثيون يحتجزون المئات بسبب احتفالهم أو منشوراتهم في ذكرى «ثورة 26 سبتمبر» لتأسيس الجمهورية العربية اليمنية. "هذه الاعتقالات وحظر جميع المظاهرات هي محاولة للحيلولة دون التعبئة الجماعية التي يمكن أن تتحدى سلطة #الحوثيين، فضلاً عن أنه انتهاك إضافي في سجل انتهاكات الحوثيين الطويل وسط إفلات تام من العقاب. نطالب بالإفراج فورًا عن كل المحتجزين لمجرد ممارسة حقهم في حرية التجمع والتعبير، بمن فيهم موظفي #الأمم_المتحدة والمجتمع المدني، الذين تم اعتقالهم وإخفائهم بالأشهر الماضية." بيان مشترك لمركز القاهرة وهيومن رايتس واتش هنا ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/dfaErH6M
