At the Amman Center for Human Rights Studies, our monthly human rights monitor aims to review the most recent human rights developments among our seven priorities. We provide a fact-based review on how ongoing human rights developments are affecting the Arab region. Our reports seek to amplify voices of the voiceless, demand for action and document the struggle of our time.<\/p>\n
This month\u2019s Human Rights Monitor focuses on, inter alia:<\/p>\n
– Political prisoner dies in UAE after years of arbitrary detention, torture, and denial of medical care
\n– Houthis in Yemen issue seventeen death sentences
\n– Arrests of journalists and activists in Algeria
\n– Parliamentary elections held in Egypt and Iraq
\n– Progress in women\u2019s employment rights in Saudi Arabia
\n– Launch of a digital platform to enhance youth participation in Libya
\n– Shrinking civic space for youth in Egypt<\/p>\n
This report is not just a record of human rights violations but an effort to shine a light on ways of driving justice, highlighting problems and violations that must be addressed. Hence, it is calling for accountability, an appeal to those who hold the reins of power, a reminder that the world is watching, and a voice for the region. By reading our \u2018Human Rights Monitor\u2019 report, you will witness the pain, the
\ncourage, and the indomitable hope of those who struggle for a better tomorrow.<\/p>\n
