The brutality of gang rape has no place in any community. No one should ever be targeted or raped because of their religion, ethnicity, or any other reason. I am horrified that a young Jewish girl was gang raped in France while hanging out with her friend in a park. We must stand

This week, Nadia Murad was joined by survivors of CRSV and supporters to unveil the “Mother & Justice” Mobile Memorial. This event is a reminder that holding perpetrators accountable is crucial. #JusticeForSurvivors #CRSV #HumanRights #YazidiGenocide #AmalClooney

As we approach the 10th anniversary of the Yazidi genocide, let us renew our commitment to supporting survivors and ensuring that justice is served. This memorial is not just a symbol of the past; it is a call to action for the future. We must continue to advocate for the rights

In 2014, three Yazidi sisters and their aunt from my village of Kocho were taken into captivity by ISIS and later sold from Mosul to Syria. On their way to Syria, all four of them jumped out of the bus and into a river to commit suicide in a desperate attempt to escape from

After a decade in IDP camps, many Yazidis are returning to Sinjar, where ISIS destroyed their homes in 2014. Despite progress, NI calls on the Iraqi government, UN, and international community to help support survivors returning to their homeland. 🔗 nadia.la/returntosinjar…

Ten years ago today, my life and the lives of hundreds of thousands of Yazidis were upended and shattered. Coming together with other survivors a decade later to commemorate the 10th anniversary in Sinjar sends a powerful message to those who sought to eradicate us from our

Wir vergessen nicht das, was den Jesidinnen und Jesiden vor zehn Jahren angetan wurde. Es waren entsetzliche Gräueltaten des sogenannten Islamischen Staates. Deutschland unterstützt den Wiederaufbau im Sinjar-Gebirge.

I am here in Sinjar at the Yazidi Genocide Memorial, joined by survivors, community members, grassroots organizers, friends, and allies to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Yazidi genocide and to honor the memory of those we lost at the hands of ISIS. Ten years on, our

Ten years ago today, my mother was on one of the last trucks when ISIS took all the women of Kocho into captivity. I'll never forget how she looked. The wind had pushed her white headscarf back on her head, and her dark hair, normally parted neatly down the middle, was wild and

My mother watched helplessly as her six sons were taken by ISIS to be executed—no mother should ever endure such horror. The following day, she, along with her sister, two nieces, and one nephew, were brutally murdered and buried together in a mass grave. A decade later, like so

My eldest brother, Elias, a father of six, was killed and buried in a mass grave in the village on August 15, 2014. He was the best mechanic—innovative, smart, and the kindest older brother anyone could ever imagine. He was executed alongside our other brothers because of his

Thank you, Madam President Vjosa Osmani, for the warm welcome and the opportunity to discuss the use of CRSV as a weapon of war against women and girls. Our conversation focused on survivor-centered approaches to reparations, and I expressed my gratitude to the President for

It was a pleasure to meet PM Albin Kurti and have a productive conversation about the steps his government is taking to support survivors of conflict-related sexual violence from the last war in Kosovo and to ensure that this support is delivered in a survivor-centered manner.

My visit to Kosovo allowed me to meet survivors and listen to their powerful stories. I was deeply moved by their courage and resilience. Even after more than two decades, some survivors have yet to share their experiences, burdened by the shame and stigma attached to speaking
