AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

UN Human Rights Council: Eritrean human rights advocates scored a diplomatic win as the UNHRC renewed the mandate of the UN Special Rapporteur on Eritrea for another year, despite opposition from several states, keeping independent scrutiny alive amid ongoing allegations of systematic abuses. Eritrean refugees in focus: A UNHRC statement by journalist Hussen Hubadin Zamzame renewed the call for international protection for Eritreans, citing detention, restrictions on freedoms, and risks of trafficking and violence even after flight. Eritrea rights mandate contest: A separate report says Worldwide Eritrean Community urged UNHRC members to renew the mandate as Geneva weighs candidates to succeed the current rapporteur, with the process carrying major political stakes. Diaspora and education: Eritreans in Switzerland held their annual Lausanne festival, featuring regional cultural villages and a briefing on the Human Rights Council agenda; in Asmara, Asmara Technical School graduated 136 students and the College of Business and Social Science graduated 1,018, underscoring ongoing skills and human-resource push. Regional migration pressure: Human Rights Watch reported Egypt’s crackdown on Sudanese and South Sudanese asylum seekers, including arrests and deportations tied to expired residency permits and administrative delays.
