We welcome the rejection by UN Human Rights of a draft resolution (L.1/Rev.1) presented by #Eritrea to discontinue the mandate of the Special Rapporteur, Dr. Babiker, and end scrutiny. Civil society strongly pushed back against this unprecedented, harmful & bad faith initiative,

High nomination fees like these are not just financial hurdles, they are structural barriers that sideline talented and qualified women from politics.
