"On Human Rights Day, we celebrate the fundamental rights and freedoms of every person in South Africa. This Human Rights Day, let's reflect on the right to shelter and housing for all South Africans. Every individual deserves a safe and secure place to call home. As we commemorate this day, let's work together to address housing challenges and create pathways to homeownership for all South Africans. #HumanRightsDay #HousingForAll #JustProperty #RealEstate"

On this significant day, we honour the courage, resilience and spirit of those who fought for the democratic rights of all South Africans. This day commemorates the Sharpeville massacre in 1960, a turning point in the struggle for human rights in our country. South Africa's journey towards freedom and democracy serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of upholding human rights for all. Wishing you and yours a blessed Human Rights Day.

At AfricanDefenders and DefendDefenders, we understand that transparency and inclusivity are vital for advancing human rights in Africa. That's why we're proud to join forces with other civil society organizations and National Human Rights Institutions in calling for a more open and participatory process in nominating and selecting members of African Union human rights mechanisms. As we gear up for the July 2024 elections to fill vacancies in the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights, we must prioritize transparency and inclusivity to ensure the integrity of the process.

On March 21st, South Africa commemorates Human Rights Day. This day serves as a reminder of the tragic event that took place in 1960 when 69 people were killed during a peaceful demonstration against apartheid pass laws.

Let us commit to building a better future by nurturing a culture that upholds human dignity and promotes respect for basic human rights for all. Together, we can work towards a united, non-racial, non-sexist, and prosperous society. #HumanRightsDay #SouthAfrica #JusticeForAll

Did you know that access to adequate housing is recognized as a fundamental human right in Africa? According to the United Nations, adequate housing is defined as a safe, secure, and habitable shelter that provides individuals and families with privacy, space, and basic amenities. This right is protected by various international human rights treaties and is essential for promoting social justice and reducing poverty in the region. #HousingRights #AfricanHomes #SocialJustice HIC-AL Habitat International Coalition América Latina UN Women SDI.

🗞️ Our new seminal report on child rights and customary justice is out! This report is based on an in-depth study of 3,894 children’s cases dealt with by customary justice systems in Lebanon, Jordan, the Palestinian Territories (West Bank, and the Gaza Strip), Afghanistan, Egypt, and Burkina Faso. The report explores the complex ways in which customary or informal justice systems impact the children who participate in them, either as victims or perpetrators. Contemporary approaches to child-centered justice point to the need to engage with customary justice systems. The ability to access justice for all, including children, is a crucial component of securing peaceful, just, and inclusive societies There is now an unprecedented ’momentum’ to reinforce customary justice systems within the Child Rights’ and Sustainable Development Goal 16’ agendas’ This seminal report has been made possible through the partnership between Terre des hommes and the Disrupting Violence Beacon at Griffith University.    Find the report here: https://lnkd.in/e6k7BmgT
