At a #ACHPR89 side event organised by DIGNITY, ASF shared practical solutions to prison overcrowding. Since March 2026, Rights Behind Bars Uganda has supported 1,869 detainees; 428 secured legal remedies. Stand with us for dignity and justice.

In Uganda, legal safeguards exist to protect children's rights. But too often, barriers prevent these protections from becoming a reality.
Through #RightsBehindBars, we’re working to change that.
Supported byt the Austrian Development Agency.

The suspension of the @FT_DES : Tunisian Forum for Economic & Social Rights is another blow to civil society.

The detention of Sihem Ben Sedrine, extended by 4 months despite her critical health, raises serious #HR concerns in #Tunisia. On day 15 of her hunger strike against arbitrary detention, she was urgently hospitalized. Authorities must act to safeguard her rights & well-being.

🚨 Devoir de vigilance européen: la France prône un report indéfini, au détriment de la justice sociale et environnementale !
Pour nos organisations, la position exprimée par la France est irresponsable et incompréhensible.
