UN Human Rights Chief @volker_turk launches the #GlobalAllianceForHumanRights to mobilize actors from all sectors, regions and generations, to help place human rights at the centre of global debate and decision-making. globalalliance.un.org
It was my pleasure to speak at the 2026 Forum on Global Human Rights Governance in Beijing on 11-12 June 2026 #Right2Development #Inequalities #ClimateChange #Conflicts
Right to development a practical tool to fix challenges of inequality, conflict & climate change, says UN Special Rapporteur Surya Deva, as "more weapons do not really result in more peace." #RightToDevelopment #HumanRight
@UN_SPExperts honour the life and legacy of Jean Ziegler, the first Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food & architect of the mandate. Jean showed that hunger is not destiny, but a violation of #HumanRights. We remember his courage & humanity. It continues to inspire our work.
UN General Assembly resolution supporting ICJ climate change ruling hailed fundamental step forward for protection of peace, self-determination, sustainable development and human wellbeing. “Vital to ensuring justice and the rule of law globally.” ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
The @CIJ_ICJ has made clear that international cooperation on #climatechange is a legal obligation. Reflected in the @UNFCCC, such cooperation is indispensable to achieving sustainable development, @UNSRdevelopment @ProfSuryaDeva told the Working Group on the #RightToDevelopment
More weapons do not mean more peace. States must choose disarmament and redirect resources toward sustainable development and the 2030 Agenda, @UNSRdevelopment @ProfSuryaDeva told the @UN Intergovernmental Working Group on the Right to Development.
Unawain ang Karapatan sa Pag-unlad ⬇️ ohchr.org/sites/default/…. Maraming salamat @UNSRdevelopment Surya Deva sa magandang proyekto na ito! #righttodevelopment@40
Kazakhstan: UN expert @UNSRdevelopment commends economic development and digitalisation, calls on the gov't to accelerate a just transition to a green economy & ensure the participation of people in all development-related decision making. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
We welcome US federal court’s interim order suspending sanctions imposed by US Government on Special Rapporteur on human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory @FranceskAlbs. Sanctions against her and @IntlCrimCourt judges & prosecutors for carrying out their work are unacceptable and should be rescinded. The essential work they are mandated to carry out should be respected and protected.
The @UN Working Group on the #RightToDevelopment monitors and reviews progress on promoting and implementing the right to development. The Working Group is holding its 27th session at @UNGeneva from 18 to 21 May 2026 Info ➜ohchr.org/en/events/sess…
🇰🇿 On 13 May, @UNSRdevelopment Surya Deva, met with the Commissioner for Human Rights (Ombudsperson) of Kazakhstan, Artur Lastayev, to discuss the protection and promotion of human rights in #Kazakhstan in the context of ongoing constitutional and institutional reforms.
Kazakhstan’s progress in advancing the SDGs and digital transformation was recognized by @UNSRdevelopment Surya Deva, following his official visit to 🇰🇿: ‘Kazakhstan is well-positioned to lead in practicing inclusive, sustainable and participatory development,” he noted.
🇰🇿 On 6 May, @UNSRdevelopment Surya Deva met with Vice Minister of Culture and Information of #Kazakhstan Yevgeniy Kochetov to discuss ongoing reforms related to human rights, public participation and inclusive development.
On 6 May, @UNSRdevelopment met with representatives of the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of #Kazakhstan to discuss environmental protection and the importance of ensuring a clean, healthy and sustainable environment as part of the right to development.
🇰🇿 On 6 May, @UNSRdevelopment Surya Deva met with Vice Minister of National Economy of Kazakhstan Asan Darbaev in Astana to discuss the implementation of the right to development and the integration of human rights into sustainable development policies.
Relatores Especiales del Consejo de Derechos Humanos de Naciones Unidas demandaron a Estados Unidos el cese del cerco energético contra #Cuba, por ser ilegal y violar los #DDHH del pueblo cubano. Los expertos trasladaron sus preocupaciones al Gobierno de #EEUU y solicitaron aclaraciones sobre la base jurídica y factual de la orden ejecutiva, así como información sobre las medidas adoptadas para mitigar sus impactos negativos sobre los derechos humanos. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
🚨🇨🇺 Expertos del Consejo de Derechos Humanos de ONU denuncian la “asfixia energética” impuesta contra Cuba👇 🔗l1nq.com/qac665i
As part of UN country visit to #Kazakhstan, I met representatives of the Govt, UN entities, youth, children & CSOs in Astana to understand better the implementation of the #right2development and #SDGs in the country I will share my initial findings & recommendations on 15 May
It is vital for states believing in the UN Charter to come together to push back against such lawlessness
#UN experts 🗣️warned that “the January 2026 executive order issued by the President of the United States imposing a fuel blockade on Cuba amounts to ‘energy starvation’ with grave consequences for human rights and the country’s overall development.” ✍️: cubaminrex.cu/en/united-stat…
#UnitedStates’ “energy starvation” of #Cuba has severe human rights impacts & must end: UN experts. "Blockade cripples functioning of essential services required for dignified life, undermining the right to food, education, health and water & sanitation.” ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
