11/04/2025 | 10:12:16 Dear Mister President. On 19 March, the mayor of Istanbul and the presidential candidate of 15.5 million Turks, Ekrem İMAMOĞLU, was detained on politically motivated charges. In response, people claimed their democratic rights through peaceful protests all around the country.

Gender-responsive budgeting is a gender equality strategy, based on how public resources are collected and allocated with three phases: budget preparation, implementation, and audit. All stakeholders should be involved through these phases, and gender-disaggregated... 28/01/2025 | 17:37:55 President, I thank dear Ms Saskia KLUIT for her compassionate and timely report on humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. Sadly, we have not paid enough attention as a human rights body to this tragedy. We have faced and watched unprecedented destruction, occupation and killings which are absolutely against international humanitarian law. Women and children have faced the devastation of their homes, the loss of loved ones and the crippling scarcity of essential resources, food, water, medicine and...
