Women and peace Speaking to the Security Council, the High Commissioner said that in Afghanistan, Sahel countries, Myanmar and elsewhere, violations of women's rights “significantly undermine global efforts to prevent conflict and sustain peace.”

Sustainable Development The next years “will fundamentally test global human rights leadership” said Deputy High Commissioner Nada Al-Nashif. Speaking at the fourth Human Rights Council intersessional meeting focusing on Human Rights and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, she echoed the Secretary-General’s call for a ‘renewed social contract anchored in human rights.’

Ethiopia At a Special Session of the Human Rights Council on Ethiopia, the Deputy High Commissioner detailed alleged violations and abuses of human rights in the context of the conflict; growing humanitarian needs; and thousands of arrests, mainly of Tigrayans, under the state of emergency.

Ukraine Deputy High Commissioner Nada Al-Nashif briefed the Human Rights Council on multiple issues involving civic space and fundamental freedoms in Ukraine from 1 November 2019 to 31 October 2021, including in territory controlled by the Government, territory controlled by the self-proclaimed ‘republics’ in eastern Ukraine, and the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol

Nicaragua The Deputy High Commissioner updated the Human Rights Council on Nicaragua, especially on the electoral process and the elections held in November. She stressed that restrictions and human rights violations “created an environment unconducive to genuine and free elections.”

Afghanistan At a Human Rights Council briefing, Deputy High Commissioner Nada Al-Nashif detailed a wide range of severe human rights issues and said policies now “will define Afghanistan’s pathway into the future”.

Dignity and rule of law Speaking at the human rights award ceremony of the CCBE, a network of European lawyers, the High Commissioner noted that "Where there is equality, justice and legal and practical respect for human rights, everyone can fully contribute to development; there is public trust in institutions; and because disputes can be impartially resolved, there is greater peace". But she added, "the rule of law has broken down, or is deliberately broken" in many societies.

Global Alliance for Care "Without care, we cannot have a productive and dignified life or develop ourselves to our full human potential," the High Commissioner said, welcoming the establishment of the Global Alliance for Care.
