Hearing disturbing news that Tunisian HRD & prominent lawyer Ayachi Hammami was arrested yesterday to serve a 5-year prison sentence on trumped up terrorism charges; I have urged the Tunisian authorities to stop criminalising HRDs & politicising the judiciary @TunisieDiplo
J'apprends avec inquiétude que le DDH & éminent avocat tunisien Ayachi Hammami a été arrêté hier pour purger une peine de 5 ans de prison sur la base d'accusations fallacieuses de terrorisme. J'ai exhorté les autorités tunisiennes à cesser de criminaliser les défenseurs des droits humains & de politiser le pouvoir judiciaire @TunisieDiplo srdefenders.org/information/…

FATF, an intergovernmental body, is often criticized for suppressing NGOs and civil society. In this episode, @Rabail26 speaks with Sangeeta Goswami of @HSCollective about how these rules are restricting NGOs globally. youtu.be/m40GjkAaAuk?si=bWth…

I welcome the Security Council’s indefinite extension of the humanitarian exemption to counter-terrorism sanctions, ensuring that life saving aid can reach the 110 million people living in areas affected by UN-listed armed groups #resolution 2671
The #UNSC speaks with one voice for humanitarian action. The unanimous adoption of Res. 2671 sends a strong message of support to all humanitarian actors & civilians in need. The resolution helps humanitarian aid to reach the most vulnerable and saves lives.

How can national authorities conduct terrorism financing risk assessments and develop risk-based regulatory measures for the non-profit sector without disrupting their legitimate charitable operations? @spaces4change organised the 2-day Learning and Practice Workshop with Ghana's Financial Intelligence Center and Ghana's NPO Secretariat to exchange ideas, lessons and strategies for conducting participatory TFRAs in accordance with the requirements of FATF Recommendation 8. We are grateful to @MottFoundation and @fatfplatform for the support.
