Ahead of Sudan’s fourth-cycle Universal Periodic Review, a joint stakeholder submission documents how the gap between pledges and practice has enabled chemical weapons allegations, drone warfare, and human shielding.
In a 90-second statement during the General Debate under Item 2, CAP Liberté de Conscience and Human Rights Without Frontiers called for urgent investigations into alleged chemical weapons use and violations in El Obeid.
A written statement submitted by CAP LC to the United Nations Human Rights Council calls for an independent international investigation into violations in Sudan, including the alleged roles of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Türkiye.
Geneva, 25 August 2026 — On 25 August 2026, in Room VIII of the Palais des Nations, CAP Liberté de Conscience (CAP LC) convened a side event on a subject that remains urgent and too often sidelined: the condition of women in wartime. Titled “Women’s Condition and Violence in Wartime,” the gathering brought together psychologists, human rights defenders, and humanitarian practitioners to give voice to women whose suffering is documented in files and reports, but whose stories rarely reach the chambers where decisions are made.
“1000 days of conflict. 1000 days of civilians suffering the first-hand consequences of the fighting”, opened Thierry Valle, President of CAP Freedom of Conscience, at the side event on Friday 27 February 2026, held at the UN Human Rights Council, as atrocities continue unabated.
