Announcement

Victims/survivors of Duterte's extrajudicial drug war killings face continuing hardship and indignity. This event will explore challenges they face, efforts being made to help them, and how it affects the ICC Philippines case.

Our first side event at the Human Rights Council in Geneva took place in early October, and featured supporters of the long-imprisoners Philippine Senator.

We hold our next online side event in conjunction with the UN High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development.

Faced with an International Criminal Court investigation, the Duterte administration in the Philippines has argued that it is investigating its own drug war killing campaign and so the ICC shouldn't. The famous human rights attorney Chel Diokno will reply as part of our NGO side event next week, on the online margins of the annual Assembly of States Parties to the Rome Treaty.

Our parallel event this week for the UN High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development will focus on extrajudicial killings and other drug war abuses in the Philippines and Indonesia, and international responses like the Global Magnitsky Act and the ICC Philippines case.

We continue our series of events at international meetings -- online for the moment -- with another focusing on extrajudicial killings in the drug war and options for the international community to respond.

Please join our online event at the UN High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development, Wednesday July 8th, noon-1:30pm ET.

StoptheDrugWar.org is holding an event in association with the UN High Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development, this Thursday in New York.
