Neste mês, completam-se cinco anos da volta do Talibã ao poder no Afeganistão, período marcado pelo agravamento das violações de direitos humanos, especialmente contra mulheres e meninas. O Brasil deveria fazer mais para proteger pessoas afegãs perseguidas pelo Talibã.1/2 www.hrw.org/pt/news/2026...

Afeganistão: os ataques do Talibã aos direitos humanos se agravam após cinco anos
O Talibã do Afeganistão consolidou uma das piores crises de direitos humanos do mundo e desmantelou sistematicamente os direitos das mulheres e meninas desde que assumiu o poder há cinco anos.

In August 2020, police committed dreadful abuses during a weeks-long operation in Brazil's Amazon. This was not the work of a few “bad apples.” A community leader said that a military police commander watched as officers tortured him. No one has been held accountable. www.hrw.org/news/2026/08...

A care system without sufficient funding is an empty promise. The proposal in Mexico City recognizes rights, but keeps key gaps that could limit implementation and real autonomy. hrw.org/news/2026/03...

Un niño con discapacidad auditiva fue privado de sus audífonos durante un proceso de deportación en EE.UU. Sin ellos, no podía comunicarse ni entender lo que ocurría. Ningún niño con discapacidad debería enfrentar detención migratoria. www.hrw.org/es/news/2026...

A child with a hearing disability was deprived of his hearing aids during a deportation process in the United States. Without them, he could not communicate or understand what was happening. No child should face immigration detention. www.hrw.org/news/2026/03...

Mexico City has a critical opportunity to adopt care and support legislation grounded in autonomy, independent living, and the rights of people with disabilities. The new Congress should consider the proposal led by disability-rights groups. www.hrw.org/news/2026/02... #CDMX #disabilityrights

¿Qué aspecto tendrá el mundo después de que hagamos la transición hacia energías renovables? Poner los derechos humanos en el centro puede ayudarnos a construir un mundo más limpio y más justo. En la #COP30, los gobiernos están negociando qué significaría una transición justa.

Earlier this week, US President Donald Trump repeated unfounded claims that vaccines or Tylenol cause autism. These statements risk pulling policymakers’ focus from the rights-respecting policies children with autism need and deserve.

1/15 🧵 Today, the UK government will ask MPs to railroad through social security legislation that makes cuts to disability-related benefits to the next stage. @hrw.org joins 80+ other orgs asking MPs to reject the UCPIP Bill. It is bad news for human rights. www.ucpipbill.co.uk/wp-content/u...
Joint civil society statement on the UC & PIP Bill
Monday 30th June 2025
We are coming together as organisations committed to fighting poverty,
providing advice, and supporting and championing the rights of disabled
people, their families, and carers. We stand firmly with disabled people and
their organisations in calling for the UK government to withdraw the UC & PIP
Bill and to undertake genuine dialogue with disabled people to shape
reforms centred on the rights and dignity that all disabled people need and
deserve.
At a time when the share of GDP spent on working-age social security has
remained stable for the last ten years, cutting the incomes of disabled people
is a political choice. There is time for the government to pursue alternatives.
If this Bill is voted through, then by 2030 it will have cut PIP for more than
400,000 disabled people and Universal Credit for more than 700,000 people
who are disabled or have a long-term health condition. These numbers will
only increase in the years to follow.This Bill has also been brought before parliament:
• Without consultation with disabled people
• Without any assessment of its impact on health and employment
outcomes
• Before the planned review of the PIP assessment has properly begun
its work
• Without knowing how the outcome of the PIP review may affect these
reforms
The changes announced last week and the compressed timetable for scrutiny
mean that MPs will only have a single day to debate or amend the new
provisions. There is too much at stake for disabled people for this Bill to be
rushed through without the opportunity for meaningful challenge or
scrutiny. We urge all MPs to vote against this Bill at Second Reading.Signatories

Dispatch for @hrw.org on the draft bill on social security in the UK. The proposed benefit cuts will harm people with disabilities, worsen poverty, and undermine rights. The government says the bill “will protect the most vulnerable.” Its own data belie that claim. www.hrw.org/news/2025/06...
