This week is the first session of the Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities for several new members, including 🇮🇱Odelia Fitoussi, who was elected Rapporteur yesterday.
Good luck to all in your important role. You can count on Israel to support your work. #CRPD

#COVID19 has many negative effects on #children, some will take years to be fully grasped if at all. Children deserve to be a part of the solution to the challenges they face. We believe it is crucial to let them have a seat at the table.

Presentation of annual report #HRC46
#COVID19 will have devastating consequences for #children and their rights. But even before the pandemic progress remained uneven and we were not on track to meet the #SDGs by 2030.

Today during our #HRC46 dialogue with @childreninwar: #Children must be protected & be able to hope for a better, brighter future. The opposite happens when Hamas continues to recruit children, teach them hatred and train them to fight & kill.

Today, and everyday, we look up to 🇮🇱Moran Samuel as #MyILWomanHero!
At 24 years old, Moran woke up one day without being able to move! She fought hard, did not let her disability define her, and became a @Paralympics champion. #Inspiration #IWD2021

Today at #HRC46 we recalled the #CRPD vision: #Disability is not a medical problem but an issue of human rights and equality. As society creates barriers, including in sport, Israel is working to life them.

Thank you @ahmedshaheed for your #HRC46 report on anti-Muslim hatred. Israel is aware of the challenges & threats faced by #Muslims worldwide. We must all continue to promote integration & counter discrimination.

Proud to have supported the establishment of this Special Procedure and the work done by Ms. Ero @UNAlbinism. The rights of persons with albinism must be protected!
Today at #HRC46 was the last ID with Ms. Ero as IE @UnAlbinism. We need to continue to tackle the root causes of human rights violations against persons with #albinism, and to consider these violations a #hatecrime. Thank you Ms. Ero for all your work!

Celebrating #Purim is always fun. Even during COVID time, we could NOT miss the opportunity to wear costumes! That's how we, @IsraelinGeneva, had our weekly meeting today. I wish more UN meetings would happen with these masks🎭 #PurimSameach

WATCH 🇮🇱Ambassador @MeiravEShahar addressing the Human Rights Council. #HRC46
FULL STATEMENT ➡️ bit.ly/2ZJPv9x
Just addressed the #HRC46. As winds of peace sweep through the Middle East, we hope that one day the Human Rights Council’s discussions will acknowledge reality instead of promoting a politicized agenda and will turn its attention to address bona fide human rights violations.

Joining the call by the Secretary-General of the UN @antonioguterres to tackle racism, anti-Semitism, anti-Muslim and Christian bigotry, homophobia, xenophobia and misogyny.
"When we allow the denigration of any one of us, we set the precedent for the demonization of all of us"
Racism and racial inequality still permeate institutions, social structures and everyday life.
We must do more than merely condemn expressions and acts of racism.
We must dig deeper. And we must act.
