SUMMARY:HRC42 Side Event - Arbitrary Detention in Yemen from Women's Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Yemen has been spiralling into a bloody conflict for the last five years. In 2018 the UN peace process managed to bring together conflict parties into agreeing on a number of confidence building measures including forming a mission to address the issue of releasing the detainees. While Yemeni women on the ground have contributed to local mediations to release more than 600 detainees\, no concrete progress has materialized in releasing the detainees through the UN-led process since 2015. \nIn this side event\, Yemeni women activists will discuss the role of Yemeni women in addressing the issue and the challenges facing the UN led process in releasing the detainees. \nSpeakers  \n\nDr. Amat Alsalam Alhaj\, Head of Mothers of Abductees Association in Yemen\n\n\nMs. Nora Alawi Al-Jarwi\, Director of Coalition of Women for Peace in Yemen\n\n\nRasha Obaid\, Economic and Post War Recovery Specialist at Peace Track Initiative\n\n\nLina Al-Hassani\, Director of To Be Foundation for Rights and Freedom\n\n\nSarah Boukhary\, Event Moderator\,  WILPF MENA Advocacy Coordinator\n\n \nTo see the flyer on the event in full size\, click here \n
