Amnesty International welcomes the report of the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders in relation to those acting to defend the rights of all people on the move.
Attacks on those defending the rights of people on the move have become more prominent in recent years in the current climate of increasingly negative discourses surrounding migrants, refugees, internally displaced people and stateless people. This statement sets out Amnesty International’s concerns with recommendations to the UN Human Rights Council.
