Kicking off the Strategic Advocacy Workshop for Thailand's UPR IV ✊🇺🇳

As the next step in our journey towards Thailand’s UPR IV this November, we gathered over 50 human rights defenders from across the country on 21 July for Day 1 of "From Evidence to Action: Strategic Advocacy for the UPR IV & ICCPR Reviews of Thailand". 🇹🇭

We built a #PeopleLedUPRMovement. We submitted the evidence. Now, it’s time to make the UN listen.

Together, we are turning local evidence, lived realities, and community demands into sharp advocacy factsheets for high-level diplomatic engagement. Because no one understands community struggles better than the communities living them. 💡

As Asmah Tanyondga-oh, Manushya Foundation Board Member and Muslim woman human rights defender, powerfully reminded us from her experience in past UPR cycles:

"Before, only a few of us were being 'consulted'. Now, we are a movement speaking up on our own issues, concerning our lives, directly to the global stage."

Proud to stand side-by-side on this journey with our incredible partners: Young Pride Foundation, People’s Movement to Eliminate Discrimination: MovED, and LBTQ+ Well Being. 🩷
