Original: HRC63: Nigerien human rights defenders remind the State of its international commitments
At the 63rd session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, Nigerien human rights defenders called on their government to live up to its international human rights commitments. Their intervention put a spotlight on the situation in Niger and pressed the State to implement the obligations it has accepted before the international community.
Why now: The Human Rights Council session gives activists a high-profile stage to pressure Niger over its human rights record.
