UN80 - Take action so reforms are in line with human rights defenders' needs.

Never have we needed a robust international human rights system so badly. But the UN human rights system is in crisis and must be reformed. We need institutions that are principled, consistent, and accountable. Follow our campaign to find out how!

Committee on NGOs' election: stand up for civil society!

The Committee on NGOs – which determines which NGOs can or cannot participate in UN meetings – will face elections in April 2026. Join ISHR’s campaign to ensure States nominate and vote for candidates who will defend civil society’s access and participation to the UN!
