Placing #Darfur ’s crisis as a top priority on the global agenda is critical.
All States are under the obligation to protect populations in #ElFasher and live up to their commitment under the #GenocideConvention .

So proud of my colleagues on Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights team for advancing this urgent & potentially lifesaving work for the peopleof #Darfur .
I wish this #genocide were getting the attention its victims deserve & that we were taking the (relatively simple) steps to end it NOW. #KeepEyesOnSudan
Celebrating our founder & chair Irwin Cotler on his birthday! As he begins a new year in his extraordinary life - captured (thus far) so beautifully by this Lantos Foundation for Human Rights & Justice tribute - he is as he's always been: sharp of mind, soft of heart & hard at work for #Justice and #HumanRights .
