🗣️ akila radhakrishnan: “The moment is now for us to continue to build on legal, community, & political momentum to recognize & codify #GenderApartheid .”
🗣️ akila radhakrishnan: “We need to advocate for the inclusion of #GenderApartheid & the #CrimesAgainstHumanity treaty to address a fundamental gap in the legal framework of int'l law, which limits our ability to hold states to account for crimes against humanity wherever they occur.”
akila radhakrishnan Strategic Litigation Project Atlantic Council 🗣️ Ziauddin Yousafzai: “Today is day 948 of the Taliban's ban on secondary education & day 488 of the Taliban’s ban on university education. 4.3 million girls have been banned from education in #Afghanistan .”
akila radhakrishnan Strategic Litigation Project Atlantic Council Ziauddin Yousafzai Malala Fund 🗣️ Ziauddin Yousafzai: “But there is hope, Afghan women’s rights activists inside & outside #Afghanistan have led this campaign & champion the cause of women’s rights. My salute to all women activists, raising their voices for human rights & saying no to #GenderApartheid in Afghanistan.”
akila radhakrishnan Strategic Litigation Project Atlantic Council Ziauddin Yousafzai Malala Fund 🗣️ Ziauddin Yousafzai:“This isn't the task of one org, one country, one foundation, this must be a collective, comprehensive, & consolidated effort. We need more countries, more orgs, more NGOs to support the codification of #GenderApartheid & to recognize it as a #CrimeAgainstHumanity .”
