Special thanks to @UNODC_Nigeria for walking us through effective strategies and roles that the civil society can play to integrate human rights into national and regional counter-terrorism responses
Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) are key partners in the fight against terrorism. At the sideline of the #AfricaCTSummit organized by Spaces for Change (S4C), UNODC🇳🇬 engaged CSOs on integrating human rights into national & regional counter-terrorism responses.
“Around the world – from Ukraine to Sudan to Gaza – violence experienced by pregnant civilians, women giving birth, nursing women, and women struggling to survive in the period after childbirth remains entirely at the sidelines of global political conversations.”
The harms women experience in armed conflict have received increased attention. But as @NiAolainF discusses, obstetric harm to pregnant, birthing, nursing, and post-partum women and girls remains sidelined in global political conversations. Listen 👇 buzzsprout.com/2074610/149595…
