Shame is such a lonely word.
During the last two and a half decades, I have been travelling to the Palais des Nations in Geneva to participate in human rights sessions, deliver interventions, and lobby states on human rights concerns.I would never have believed that I should see the UN session hall almost empty as it was during the 44th session of the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC), which opened on 30th June 2020.Participation was online due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
