1/2 At #EB146, 42 States called on @WHO to implement the #UNDisabilityStrategy, which requires the full support & commitment of the org as a whole, across all levels. WHO has a unique opportunity to lead on disability inclusion in the UN system. 🗒READ bit.ly/37W9tQH

Thank you to 🇫🇷@FranceONUGeneve 🇩🇪@GermanyUNGeneva 🇪🇺@EU_UNGeneva ✡@WorldJewishCong for your collaboration on this project. Such educational visits are essential to keep the memory of the 6 million Jewish victims of the #Holocaust alive. #WeRemember

Going through the historic documents of the Maison d'Izieu shed a light on the atrocities of the #Holocaust. It enabled an interesting discussion among diplomats on the remembrance work, including the role of the post-war justice #Nuremberg #WeRemember

Today, 30 diplomats @UNGeneva are in 🇫🇷Maison d'Izieu, marching in the steps of 44 Jewish children who were deported to #Auschwitz during the #Holocaust. An important visit to remember the victims and to understand the current scourge of #antisemitism. #WeRemember

📢Israel deeply regrets #CERD's erroneous decision, stating it has jurisdiction to deal with a Palestinian complaint lodged with it against Israel. This decision is not based on solid legal grounds and is clearly selective and biased against Israel. ➡️MORE bit.ly/Israel-CERD-Decision

This fascinating exhibition reveals, amongst others, the stories of Simon Wiesenthal, Emmanuel Ringelblum and Rachel Auerbach, Raphael Lemkin, Vasily Grossman, Alfred Wiener, Eva Reichmann and more. All pioneers who documented the horrors of the Holocaust. #GenocidePreventionDay

In 1943, Raphael Lemkin was 1️⃣ to use the term #genocide to describe the atrocities committed by the Nazis against the Jews during the #Holocaust. Today, together with @GermanyUNGeneva, we will honor him and other researchers/institutes for their pioneer work. 📅 12:30 @UNGeneva

"Don't stop dreaming, no matter what people say" @Shalva_Center Band. This is one of the three inspiring quotes placed on the back of the wheelchairs aimed at children attending the Human Rights Council, which were donated today to @UNGeneva by 🇮🇱@AmbRazShechter. #HRC #IDPD

#IDPD2019 | Today, @AmbRazShechter announced the donation by Israel of three 🇮🇱@wheelchairsofhp ♿️♿️♿️to @UNGeneva. This is a concrete step to make the UN truly accessible, so that persons with #disabilities can actively take part and influence world issues discussed in Geneva.
