Human Rights Council (HRC)
The Human Rights Council (HRC) is the key intergovernmental body within the United Nations system responsible for the promotion and protection of all human rights around the globe. It holds three regular sessions a year: in March, June and September. The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) is the secretariat for the HRC.
The HRC works by:
-
Debating and passing resolutions on global human rights issues and human rights situations in particular countries
-
Examining complaints from victims of human rights violations or activist organizations on behalf of victims of human rights violations
-
Appointing independent experts (known as “Special Procedures”) to review human rights violations in specific countries and examine and further global human rights issues
-
Engaging in discussions with experts and governments on human rights issues
-
Assessing the human rights records of all UN Member States every four and a half years through the Universal Periodic Review
AWID works with feminist, progressive and human rights partners to share key knowledge, convene civil society dialogues and events, and influence negotiations and outcomes of the session.
With our partners, our work will:
◾️ Monitor, track and analyze anti-rights actors, discourses and strategies and their impact on resolutions
◾️ Raise awareness of the findings of the 2017 and 2021 OURs Trends Reports.
◾️Support the work of feminist UN experts in the face of backlash and pressure
◾️Advocate for state accountability
◾️ Work with feminist movements and civil society organizations to advance rights related to gender and sexuality.

Abby Lippman
Abby fue una feminista y activista por los derechos humanos pionera, y antes epidemióloga de McGill University.
Abby era conocida por defender causas sociales, y por sus lúcidas críticas a las tecnologías reproductivas y otros temas médicos. En particular, hizo campaña contra lo que ella denominó la «genetización» de las tecnologías reproductivas, contra la terapia de reemplazo hormonal, y a favor de más y mejor investigación antes de la aprobación de descubrimientos tales como las vacunas contra el virus del papiloma humano.
Cuando falleció, sus amigxs y colegas la describieron afectuosamente como una «ardiente defensora» de la salud de las mujeres.

Marielle Franco
Marielle était une femme politique brésilienne, féministe lesbienne et militante des droits humains.
Marielle était une critique virulente de la brutalité policière et des exécutions extrajudiciaires. Sa politique, ouvertement féministe, centrée sur les personnes noires et les favelas était une source d’espoir pour les groupes marginalisés de Rio de Janeiro, actuellement gouvernée par un gouvernement conservateur et un maire évangélique.
Le 14 mars 2018, après avoir prononcé un discours à Rio de Janeiro, Marielle Franco et son chauffeur ont été assassinés, abattus par balles. Suite à la nouvelle de leur mort, les foules sont descendues dans les rues en criant « Marielle presente! » (Marielle est ici !) et ont exigé que justice soit faite.
