#Uzbekistan remains on Tier 2 of US gov Trafficking in Persons report: While the national gov continued to enforce a ban on #ForcedLabor in the #cotton harvest, some local officials allegedly continued to create pressures to meet production targets.

Some local officials reportedly provide silkworms to farmers and force them to sign contracts stating they will agree to cultivate #silk cocoons in furtherance of production quotas.

Honoured to meet Ales Bialiatski, a Belarusian human rights defender, founder of the Viasna Human Rights Centre, & Nobel Peace Prize laureate.
In December 2025, after more than 4 years in prison, he was released and continues his work defending human rights.

Great to be back in #Warsaw for the Human Dimension Conference with #Uzbek rights defenders @GMamarasulova and Sharifa Madrakhimova, last year's winner of @FrontLineHRD award. Here to discuss the continuing crackdown on activists, journalists and transnational repression.

🇺🇿 Can someone explain why local officials feel so entitled to abuse their power like this? Again, farmers are threatened with arbitrary land lease termination. Where is the accountability @agrouzbekistan ?

"Blogger Sirojiddin Adilov’s October 5 conviction on dubious extortion and fraud charges raises serious questions about fair trial standards in Uzbekistan, as well as the government’s commitment to upholding freedom of expression” - @MihraRittmann @hrw

🇺🇿 In 2021 #Uzbekistan eradicated state-imposed forced labor of cotton pickers but cotton farmers remain at risk of #ForcedLabor and exploitation. On #WorldCottonDay, we call on @GOVuz to abolish mandatory crop allocation and empower farmers.

🇺🇿 Crackown on media freedom continues: Rights activist Sirojiddin Odilov with almost 1 million followers @YouTube was jailed for 4 years for "extortion". "Victims" filed their complaints after his arrest, some retracted them and did not testify in court.

The appalling human cost when multilateral development banks @EBRD @IFC_org fail to enforce social & environmental safeguards. Some 10,000 livelihoods were destroyed by the Indorama Agro cotton project but no-one appears to be responsible. "Do no harm"?
