A personal update: After 7 years, I’ll be stepping down as Executive Director of GiveOut in early 2025. I’m deeply grateful to everyone who’s been part of this incredible journey and proud of everything we’ve achieved together - thank you so much. #LGBTQI #HumanRights #Leadership

I'm a PhD student at @UniofOxford and I think I'm living in a fairytale :-) Foxes playing around in the snow at Magdalen College this morning — absolutely magical!

Quite a great news that the ‘lone wolf’ is out on bail. He belongs nowhere near prison. His works hugely benefit Cambodia. Dara that I know never have any ill intent to destabilise his country or harm public security. Hoping for his acquittal from the charge against him.

Wow! What a night! We are proud to say that we raised over £110,000 last night at City for LGBT for @ASEANSOGIE, @OtherFoundation and @LGBTConsortium, working to protect our communities in the UK and around the world. #CityForLGBT

Not arresting journalists doing good work on scams and criminal activities could help restore some reputation. And it shouldn't be hard.

We’re proud to support @OtherFoundation as one of the three charity partners of this year’s City for LGBT . Learn how you can support organisations like The Other Foundation at City for LGBT by visiting the link below! buff.ly/3yPBEn3

Exactly 12 years ago today, a Taliban gunman pointed his gun at my head and shot me for daring to speak up for girls’ right to go to school. I want to thank every person for your solidarity and support, from praying for my recovery to helping me in my work for girls’ access to education, both in my home country of Pakistan and around the world. Most years, I spend October 9th like any other day, with gratitude for having lived another year. But today, I am in New York to address the American Society of International Law (ASIL), a prestigious group of legal experts who have chosen to honour @MalalaFund and its work alongside Afghan activists fighting to protect the right to education for girls in Afghanistan. These women worked tirelessly before the fall of Kabul in 2021, and fearlessly since, to keep girls learning under the most impossible circumstances. It is humbling to stand alongside them and gratifying to see them receive the recognition they deserve. The Taliban continue to point literal and metaphoric weapons at girls and women in Afghanistan every day, from public beatings to ruthless edicts that ban them from learning, working and living freely. The brutality of the Taliban’s oppressive system against women is so extreme that Afghan activists and human rights defenders are calling it gender apartheid. Right now, Afghan women and girls need more than words of sympathy. I call on governments and influential institutions to leverage their power, and through international law, hold the Taliban accountable. I especially call on Muslim leaders and institutions to play a leading role in challenging the Taliban’s misuse of religion and culture. Just as people stood with me and my friends more than a decade ago, I hope people will stand in solidarity with Afghan girls and women now. ❤️ @Hmosadiq @zarqayaftali @deemahiram @metra_mehran @RahelaHSidiqi @SHalaimzai

#Malaysia: Alarmed by reports that the @anwaribrahim government has facilitated transnational repression by deporting a Cambodian domestic worker for her online criticism of Hun Sen. A clear violation of international law & a new low for this government benarnews.org/english/news/m…

I am currently out of Cambodia but have been following the arrest and charges against Mech Dara closely. Thank you to those who have reached out to keep me updated. I endorse the statement made by @marcjulio expressing our concern about the charges levelled.

My courageous friend and outstanding journalist has been reportedly arrested in Koh Kong. His whereabouts remain unknown. Praying for his safety #mechdara #cambodia

More alarming and heartbreaking news from Cambodia just ahead of the annual family reunion holidays. Please release Bong @MechDara1.

According to CamboJA News the VERY independent journalist Mech Dara seems to have been arrested in Sre Ambel. May all his friends keep an eye on this.
