"Judicial reform is not just about improving the functionality of the courts; appointment & promotion of judges. It is also about public trust & ensuring the rights & dignity of every citizen are upheld," @AugustLothar said at the launch of the strategic plan of the #Judiciary.
Grateful to host @AugustLothar at @sshrNetwork for a timely exchange on the growing challenges facing HRDs ahead of South Sudan’s envisioned elections. We shared a contextual update and stressed the urgent need for protection and support. #HumanRights #CivicSpace #SSOT
Today @sshrdNetwork Secretariat held a meeting with @eKlashaugen at the Embassy of the Kingdom of Norway in Juba. Our discussion focused on the human rights situation, the associated risks, & the critical role of HRDs. We greatly appreciate this timely and constructive exchange.

Despite the great work UNMISS does in protecting civilians in displacement camps through patrols & community engagement, the ongoing volatile situation in South Sudan with frequent conflict demands increased efforts to ensure safety of the heavily impacted civilian population.
We gathered with activists, specialists, and artists in Nairobi to amplify #6MillionVoices to collectively demand justice and accountability for human rights violations in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and push for tangible solutions to the ongoing conflict. #Justice4Congo
