🇺🇳 ICT once again puts Tibet in the spotlight at the UN Human Rights Council!
Together with Tibetan and other human rights organisations, ICT once again brought Tibet to the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva last month - through a number of events, oral statements and engagement with states.
A key moment was a side-event on Tibetan children’s rights, organised by the Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights ahead of China’s review by the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child next year. Speakers highlighted the impact of China’s residential boarding school system on Tibetan children, as well as the dangerous growing political indoctrination of even the youngest children. ICT’s Kai Müller joined the panel, moderated by our EU Policy Director Vincent Metten.
UN High Commissioner Volker Türk, the EU and several states also raised concerns about the situation in Tibet during the session.
