SUMMARY:Launch event: Exposure\, solidarity\, resistance: photographing the daily life of human rights
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the launch of the ‘Exposure\, solidarity\, resistance’ exhibition at The Hague Humanity Hub. An engaged\, intimate\, and thought-provoking series of images by young artists from the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague (KABK) reflecting on human rights and exposing the strength\, vulnerability and diversity of residents of The Hague. \n\n\n\nPhotography and human rightsPhotography is a powerful tool that can spark resistance and mobilise people in the fight for justice. Lewis W. Hine’s photographs of children working in cotton mills were instrumental in bringing about the first child labour laws in the United States. It only took twenty-four hours for Boston to improve inspection and maintenance of fire escapes in the city after Boston Herald photographer Stanley Forman’s picture of a child and her godmother falling from a collapsing fire escape in 1975. \n\n\n\nVisual images are instrumental in defining\, explaining\, promoting\, and contesting human rights. In Iran images of unveiled Iranian women have become a signature of the protests against gender oppression in the past months. Photography and human rights share an aspiration to universality and to communicate across differences. At the same time\, visualizing human rights runs the risk of reproducing stereotypes\, biases\, and inequalities. \n\n\n\nHuman rights in The HagueHuman rights experts at the Asser Institute and photographers at the Royal Academy of Art The Hague (KABK) joined forces to help students explore this close relationship between photography and human rights. Bachelor students in the course ‘Photographing Society’ were invited to portray a human rights issue in their own environment. \n\n\n\nWe will kick off the exhibition by a roundtable conversation between the students\, their teachers\, and experts in the field of human rights photography. We will reflect on the exhibition and highlight different aspects of the relationship between photography and human rights. We discuss the opportunities and challenges of combining the two and pay attention to the freedom and responsibly of artists and the ethics of spectatorship. \n\n\n\nRoundtable speakers \n\n\n\n\nDirk-Jan Visser (Photographer\, teacher at KABK)\n\n\n\nSofia Stolk This link opens in a new tab (Asser Institute/VU Amsterdam/Movies that Matter)\n\n\n\nHanna Burgers  This link opens in a new tab(KABK student and 2022 International Development Law Organization (IDLO) Artist in Residence)\n\n\n\nGabby Rialland  This link opens in a new tab(The Hague Institute for Innovation of Law)\n\n\n\nNadja Houben This link opens in a new tab (Director Human Rights in the Picture)\n\n\n\nJamie Smith This link opens in a new tab (Student exhibitor KABK)\n\n\n\n\nWorks exhibited by KABK students: \n\n\n\n\nDensley Annastatia\n\n\n\nJade Kievits\n\n\n\nJadie Smith\n\n\n\nLisa van der Berg\n\n\n\nPippa de Jong\n\n\n\nSimaa Alsaig\n\n\n\nTori McCrea\n\n\n\n\n\nSign up here!

SUMMARY:The Hague Roundtable on Climate & Security- Breaking the Cycle: Unlocking Climate Finance for Fragile States
DESCRIPTION:Many fragile and conflict-affected states are highly vulnerable to climate change – yet the more fragile a country is\, the less climate finance\, including for adaptation and resilience\, it has historically received.● Extremely fragile states averaged $2.1 per person in adaptation financing compared to $161.7 perperson for not-fragile states (Reda and Wong 2021).● Country-specific analyses show a shortfall in how much FCS receive; for example\, Niger received$6.58 per person per year\, Mali received $4.27 per person per year\, Zimbabwe received $2.05 perperson per year\, and DRC only received $0.92 per capita per year (Alcayna 2020)Challenges to accessing and using climate finance in fragile and conflict-affected areas include a low appetite and tolerance for risk\, stringent funding requirements\, inflexible operational protocols\, and difficulties of monitoring progress and measuring outcomes.In the midst of these funding barriers\, communities living in these vulnerable contexts are often at the forefront of climate change and are facing its most severe impacts. Recent droughts in Somalia to floods in Nigeria have demonstrated the devastating effects of increased unpredictability of weather patterns and in particular the role of water. In this context of volatility\, communities’ resilience to adapt toincreased hazards becomes paramount\, and yet funding is often unable to reach those living in the most vulnerable areas.In this context\, Mercy Corps recently published a study to identify innovative solutions to overcomingthese barriers to finance in fragile and conflict-affected areas: https://www.mercycorps.org/researchresources/breaking-the-cycleAddressing this situation is more urgent than ever\, in particular in this context\, especially as climateexperts and policy-makers are rethinking climate funding structures related to Loss and Damage\, and multilateral development banks and insurance mechanisms.The RoundtableBringing together a variety of stakeholders\, this 13th meeting of The Hague Roundtable will discuss ways to ensure that climate finance reaches those who most need it. In particular\, the Roundtable aims to facilitate the exchange of experiences and identification of solutions to channel climate finance to fragile states. Capitalizing on the scope of stakeholders in and near The Hague\, the Roundtable will seek to advance ideas on: \n\n\n\n\nDesigning solutions to deliver finance and enhance climate resilience in FCS\n\n\n\nFunding these solutions in FCS\n\n\n\nDelivering these solutions in FCS\n\n\n\n\nThe full invitation and agenda is available to view here. \n\n\n\n\nRegister here!

SUMMARY:UN OCHA Centre for Humanitarian Data: Quantifying Climate Change Risk in Humanitarian Response
DESCRIPTION:A new Climate Change Risk Index from INFORM quantifies the humanitarian risks associated with the climate emergency. Depending on different emission and population scenarios\, the number of high risk countries may increase from 36 today to 52 by 2050\, with the number of people living in very high risk countries roughly tripling from 580 million to 1.5 billion. \n\n\n\nExperts will discuss these findings and provide examples of how governments and humanitarian organizations can use this analysis and other research findings to prepare for and respond to climate-related shocks. \n\n\n\nThe speakers are: \n\n\n\n\nTom De Groeve\, Acting Head of the Disaster Risk Management Unit\, Joint Research Centre of the European Commission\n\n\n\nMark Skeith\, Senior Policy Analyst\, U.S. Agency for International Development\n\n\n\nAnna Lena Huhn\, Regional Anticipatory Action and Disaster Risk Financing Advisor\, United Nations World Food Programme Regional Bureau for Southern Africa and Indian Ocean States\n\n\n\nAsar Ul Haq Muhammad\, Shelter and Settlement Cluster Technical Coordinator\, International Organization for Migration in South Sudan\n\n\n\n\nModerated by: \n\n\n\n\nQuynh Nhu Tran\, Humanitarian Affairs Officer\, Policy Branch\, United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here!

DESCRIPTION:On Monday 13 March 2023 the International Centre for Counter-Terrorism (ICCT) will hold a Live Webinar on al-Hol moderated by Dr. Joana Cook.  \n\n\n\nYears after the Islamic State’s territorial defeat in Syria\, and the group’s loss of its last bastion in al-Baghouz\, tens of thousands of individuals\, the large majority of which are women and children\, are still held in dire living conditions in northeast Syria’s camps. In recent years\, both local and global efforts to repatriate the residents of Al-Hol have gradually gained momentum in light of the critical humanitarian and security situations inside the camp. The process of repatriating and reintegrating those held at Al-Hol is understandably a complex task involving considerations around screening and risk assessment processes\, and with numerous barriers to the effective reintegration of those willing to return to their areas of origin. In addition to these challenges standing in the way of those able to return\, there is also a significant number of Al-Hol residents who are unable\, and in some cases\, unwilling to return to their areas of origins\, often leaving these people with bleak long-term prospects. This Live Briefing will discuss a number of key issues relating to the on-the-ground happenings and future prospects of Syria’s Al-Hol camp and its residents. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:University of Leiden Lecture by Michael Mazarr on 'Deterring China: Challenges and Opportunities'
DESCRIPTION:The Institute of Security and Global Affairs in cooperation with the Royal Netherlands Society for War Studies (KVBK) on Thursday\, 16 March organises a lecture by Michael Mazarr on ‘Deterring China: Challenges and Opportunities’  \n\n\n\nWhile the conflict in Ukraine deservedly receives much (academic) attention\, it is important not to lose track of other rising geopolitical tensions. China not only strives to pair its economic power with military might\, it also significantly influences the war in Ukraine by the level of political\, diplomatic\, and military support it might provide Russia. Moreover\, the question of whether and how China can be deterred from invading Taiwan is becoming more pressing. Michael Mazarr will address these challenges and opportunities of deterrence in his lecture.  \n\n\n\n\nMore information and sign up

SUMMARY:KUNO Roundtable: Localisation of humanitarian aid in Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:KUNO is hosting a roundtable at Cordaid to discuss the status of the localization of humanitarian aid in Ukraine\, access to humanitarian financing\, and the quality of the partnerships between Ukrainian and international humanitarian actors. Why is it so difficult to cut the bureaucracy? How can local civil society actors be involved with setting the priorities? How can the system be changed in which international organisations are pressured to distribute aid quickly and reach as many people as possible\, even if this fails to meet Ukrainians’ real needs? And can we learn from examples where Ukrainian civil society organisations do have direct access to financing and where international and Ukrainian organisations complement each others work in the humanitarian response?  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore details and sign up information

SUMMARY:The London Story "how to stand up to an army: Meet HRD Babloo Loitongbam"
DESCRIPTION:On March 28\, 15:00\, join us at the Humanity Hub for a lecture and Q&A with Babloo Loitongbam\, a human rights defender from India. \n\n\n\nBabloo is the Director of Human Rights Alert and has been fighting to defend human rights in Manipur\, a conflict zone in the north east of India\, for 30 years now. He was also a Fulbright Scholar and is an Ashoka Life Fellow. \n\n\n\nBabloo has been fighting against the draconian Armed Forces Special Powers Act\, which has been repeatedly condemned by the United Nations. As the Act grants impunity to the army\, the conflict in Manipur costs the life of one civilian per 100\,000 a year. Babloo and his team have meticulously documented evidence of 1528 cases of extrajudicial killings of civilians by security forces\, and pushed India’s Supreme Court to appoint a fact-finding committee to investigate six of these cases. Without Babloo\, widows whose husbands have died through extrajudicial killings would not have received any compensation at all. \n\n\n\nBabloo is a fierce defender of human rights towards these armed forces\, and has withstood death threats. Babloo bases his methods on Gandhi’s form of nonviolent resistance and employs all legal means offered by the Indian State and international organisations. \n\n\n\nJoin us at the Hague Humanity Hub as Babloo speaks about the long fight against the Indian military\, and how not just human rights defenders\, but civilians are framed and targeted as terrorists. He will further speak on institutionalised state impunity\, and be available to answer your questions about human rights in India. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore information and sign up here

SUMMARY:T.M.C. Asser Institute Lecture:
DESCRIPTION:On April 20\, 2023\, Professor Fakhri will deliver the 8th Annual T.M.C. Asser Lecture in the Peace Palace in the Hague. The title of his lecture is: ‘The right to food\, violence\, and food systems’. To allow for a better understanding of how food systems operate and to reframe how the right to food is addressed in international law\, Michael Fakhri will examine forms of violence in food systems in his lecture. \n\n\n\nAbout the 8th Annual T.M.C. Asser Lecture\, Michael Fakhri writes: “Drawing on my work as Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food and my upcoming report to the Human Rights Council\, I will outline a way out. I will explain how systems not only produce food but also amplify and produce forms of violence that make people more poor\, vulnerable\, and marginalised. I also describe how food systems rely on a global economy of dependency and extractivism. In sum\, food systems are part of a cycle between structural inequality and systemic violence causing wide-spread human rights violations. I will address the war in Ukraine to highlight how international markets amplify rather than abate violence\, creating global shocks from a regional war.”   \n\n\n\nMr. Michael Fakhri\, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food since 2020\, is a professor at the University of Oregon School of Law where he teaches courses on human rights\, food law\, development\, and commercial law. He is also the director of the Food Resiliency Project. He investigates key environmental and policy issues relating to all stages of the food system\, including production\, transportation\, packaging and consumption. Mr. Fakhri has taught courses on the right to food at Harvard Law School\, European University Institute\, and the University of Arizona Indigenous Governance Program. He has lectured on international human rights and development topics at universities around the globe. Mr. Fakhri has further led public dialogues on human rights and development. During his practice as a lawyer\, Mr. Fakhri fought for the rights of people who were indigent and incarcerated in a psychiatric institution. He is the author the book ‘Sugar and the Making of International Trade Law’\, and co-author of ‘Bandung Global History and International Law: Critical Pasts and Pending Futures’ (co-edited with Vasuki Nesiah and Luis Eslava). \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore information can be found here

SUMMARY:The Hague University of Applied Sciences: Presentation Clara Meijer-Wichmann Medal
DESCRIPTION:Every year\, the League for Human Rights awards the Clara Meijer-Wichmann Medal to a person or group that has made a special case for human rights in the Netherlands. Because human rights are not self-evident in the Netherlands either. The surcharge affair is an example of this. \n\n\n\nIn 2022\, the medal was awarded to Chermaine Leysner\, Renske Leijten and Pieter Omtzigt. Their enormous commitment to combating the violation of the fundamental rights of users of the childcare allowance was the reason for this. \n\n\n\nOn October 30\, 2022\, the medal was already awarded to Renske Leijten and Pieter Omtzigt (read the report here ). Sadly\, Chermaine Leysner\, as a representative of all parents fighting for their rights\, was prevented by illness at the time. On March 30\, we will put her in the spotlight and award her the medal during a second event. Renske Leijten and Pieter Omtzigt\, both members of the House of Representatives\, will also be present. \n\n\n\nThis event is a collaboration between the League for Human Rights\, Faith in Human Rights\, study association Trinitas and knowledge center Global and Inclusive Learning. \n\n\n\nThe award ceremony / programme is in Dutch\, but the discussion can be in English if audience members indicate so. \n\n\n\n\nRegister here
