.@LegacyTigray & #Tigray civil society at the 11th Global Network of #R2P Focal Points mtg was a powerful moment of solidarity & strategy. Gov’ts & UN heard directly from affected comm—including Tigray—on the urgent need to strengthen multilateral responses to atrocity crimes.
Last week, I represented @LegacyTigray & #Tigray civil society at the #R2P Focal Points Meeting in Brussels. @GCR2P. We joined gov’ts & UN reps to call for stronger, inclusive tools for atrocity prevention. Civil society must lead in shaping global responses.✊🏾

The impact of Genocidal War on education in #Tigray is staggering. Schools have been destroyed, teachers displaced, and students left without classrooms or resources. The future of Tigray’s children hangs in the balance. #TigrayEducationCrisis #RightToEducation #TigrayGenocide

The absence of educators, supplies, classrooms, and psychosocial support will have a lasting effect on Tigray’s students and their access to education. @WHO @UNICEF #SupportTigray #HumanitarianAid

Education in Tigray is more than infrastructure—it’s hope and healing for a generation scarred by war. A long road lies ahead, but with focused support and stability, Tigray’s children can reclaim their right to learn. #TigrayEducation #BuildBackBetter #TigrayGenocide

Buildings that once served as safe havens for health in #Tigray are now shells. 78% of health posts, 72% of health centers and 80% of hospitals have been destroyed. The scars left on the landscape mirror those inflicted on the people. #TigrayGenocide #RightToHealth @WHO @UNICEF

Accessibility is crippled. The siege blocks medicine, food, and aid. Antenatal care has dropped from 94% to 16%, and child malnutrition has skyrocketed to 78%. The impact on health is staggering, and the world cannot remain silent. #RightToHealth #TigrayCrisis @UNHumanRights

Functionality is near zero. Most health facilities are barely functional & health workers haven’t received salaries for 17 months of service during the siege. The healthcare system has collapsed, & Tigrayans are left without the basic human right to medical care. #TigrayGenocide

Voices of moderation are silenced. Propaganda spreads. Any act of dissent is met with hostility. Society reaches a perilous brink. #TigrayGenocide #RememberAndAct @UNHumanRights @hrw @amnesty @GenocideWatch

The final stage. Evidence is destroyed, narratives rewritten, blame shifted. Denial ensures genocide can be repeated. We must remember and demand accountability. #TigrayGenocide #NeverForget @BBCWorld @AJEnglish @ReutersAfrica @AP

We’ve walked through the 10 stages of genocide, bearing witness to the evidence of these tragedies. We honor the resilience of survivors & the memories of lives lost. Together, we remember. Together, we say: #NeverAgain. #TigrayGenocide #4YearsRemembered #JusticeForTigray

As we honor the 4th year of Tigray Genocide, let’s reflect on 10 stages of genocide to remember, educate & advocate for justice. 
Genocide begins with 'us vs. them.' It’s a powerful tool used to divide society, instilling the seeds of mistrust. #TigrayGenocide #4YearsRemembered

Language shapes perception. ‘Vermin,’ ‘disease,’ ‘enemy’—words chosen to strip groups of humanity, making violence permissible. #TigrayGenocide #StopHate @HolocaustMuseum @GlobalJusticeC

Genocide isn’t spontaneous. It’s organized, from militias to logistics. Who arms, who trains, who plans—these are questions that need answers. #TigrayGenocide #4YearsRemembered @UNHumanRights @hrw @amnesty @endgenocide
