SUMMARY:World Day in Support of Victims of Torture / Werelddag voor steun aan slachtoffers van foltering 2026
DESCRIPTION:Torture seeks to annihilate the victim’s personality and denies the inherent dignity of the human being.\n\nDespite the absolute prohibition of torture under international law\, torture persist in all regions of the world. Concerns about protecting national security and borders are increasingly used to allow torture and other forms of cruel\, degrading and inhuman treatment. Its pervasive consequences often go beyond the isolated act on an individual; and can be transmitted through generations and lead to cycles of violence. The United Nations has condemned torture from the outset as one of the vilest acts perpetrated by human beings on their fellow human beings. Torture is a crime under international law. According to all relevant instruments\, it is absolutely prohibited and cannot be justified under any circumstances. This prohibition forms part of customary international law\, which means that it is binding on every member of the international community\, regardless of whether a State has ratified international treaties in which torture is expressly prohibited. The systematic or widespread practice of torture constitutes a crime against humanity. On 12 December 1997\, by resolution 52/149\, the UN General Assembly proclaimed 26 June the United Nations International Day in Support of Victims of Torture\, with a view to the total eradication of torture and the effective functioning of the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel\, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment. 26 June is an opportunity to call on all stakeholders including UN Member States\, civil society and individuals everywhere to unite in support of the hundreds of thousands of people around the world who have been victims of torture and those who are still tortured today. \nLinks:\nDay in Support of Victims of Torture – 26 June\n \nInternational Day in Support of Victims of Torture\, 26 June \n26 June Virtual Brochure

SUMMARY:Unshielded Childhood: Palestinian children and teenagers killed by Israel in the West Bank in 2025 - publication
DESCRIPTION:Since October 2023\, Israel has been waging an extensive assault on all aspects of Palestinian existence in the West Bank. \nThis includes a broad\, systematic violation of human rights\, first among them the most basic right – to life. Lethal\, unbridled violence employed by the Israeli regime’s armed forces\, including the military and settler militias\, has led to an unprecedent increase in the killing of Palestinians\, and particularly the killing of children and teenagers by Israeli forces. Over the course of two years and eight months\, from 7 October 2023 to 7 June 2026\, Israeli forces killed 235 Palestinian children and teenagers in the West Bank. Five others were killed by settlers. In 2025 alone\, the year that is the focus of this investigation\, Israeli forces killed 54 Palestinian children and teenagers in the West Bank. The unprecedented scale of killing of Palestinian children and teenagers by Israeli forces is the result of a reckless open-fire policy\, expanded to be even more permissive than in the past\, that is currently being implemented in the West Bank. Those responsible do not try to hide this policy; rather\, they give it full systemic backing\, as reflected in the remarks of Central Command Chief Avi Bluth\, who publicly boasted that “we are killing like we haven’t killed since 1967.” Bluth’s claim that “96% of those killed were involved in terrorism” – an allegation exposed as a brazen lie by documentation of the circumstances of death in B’Tselem’s list of Palestinian fatalities – also reflects the Israeli system’s routine identification of Palestinians killed by Israeli forces as “terrorists” or “terror operatives”\, including civilians who were not members of an armed organization and posed no danger at the time they were killed. B’Tselem’s investigation ‘Unshielded Childhood: Palestinian children and teenagers killed by Israel in the West Bank in 2025‘ of these cases found that only two of the 54 Palestinian children and teenagers killed in the West Bank in 2025 were armed with firearms at the time they were shot. This identification creates\, de facto\, systemic impunity for killing. The Israeli system does not stop at justifying these killings after the fact. It also refrains almost entirely from holding the perpetrators accountable. According to data from the human rights organization Yesh Din\, since the start of the war in October 2023\, no indictments are known to have been filed in cases involving killings in the West Bank. Yet the immunity guaranteed in advance and the absence of any real demand for accountability after these crimes are committed are not confined to the legal sphere. They are also reflected in “public impunity” that stems from the Israeli public’s indifference to the killing of Palestinian children. In this context\, the sharp rise in the killing of children in the West Bank by Israeli forces cannot be separated from the more than 21\,000 Palestinian children that Israel has killed as part of its genocidal assault on the Gaza Strip since October 2023. The fact that even this inconceivable number has not led to public demands for a change in the policy of killing shows how far the dehumanization of Palestinians has gone in Israeli eyes. These processes are what enables a reality of killing children as a routine matter. \nLinks:\nUnshielded Childhood: Palestinian children and teenagers killed by Israel in the West Bank in 2025 \nMensenrechtenorganisatie: meer dode minderjarigen door schietbeleid Israël

SUMMARY:Toezichtrapport 84 Verwerking van bulkdatasets door de AIVD en MIVD (2026) - publicatie
DESCRIPTION:De Commissie van Toezicht op de Inlichtingen en Veiligheidsdiensten (CTIVD) onderzocht of de Algemene Inlichtingen- en Veiligheidsdienst (AIVD) en de Militaire Inlichtingen- en Veiligheidsdienst (MIVD) aan de wettelijke randvoorwaarden voldoen bij grootschalige dataverwerking: een aantal belangrijke waarborgen is niet op orde\, hierdoor zijn gegevens onrechtmatig verwerkt. \nDe AIVD en de MIVD maken bij de uitvoering van hun wettelijke taken gebruik van zogenaamde bulkdatasets. Dit zijn omvangrijke verzamelingen persoonsgegevens met soms miljoenen regels gegevens. Daarbij kan het gaan om namen en telefoonnummers maar ook om locatiegegevens\, sociale mediagegevens of inhoudelijke communicatiegegevens. De datasets die de diensten gebruiken zijn onder meer afkomstig van andere onderdelen van de overheid. Ook kan het gaan om datasets die commercieel verkrijgbaar zijn of gestolen datasets die door hackers op het internet worden aangeboden. De AIVD en de MIVD mogen bulkdata onder meer gebruiken bij onderzoek naar terrorisme en spionagedreigingen uit andere landen. Wel zijn hier bepaalde voorwaarden aan verbonden. Zo mogen de gegevens na verwerving maar een beperkte tijd bewaard blijven. Ook mogen binnen de AIVD en de MIVD maar een beperkt aantal personen met de gegevens werken en moet de toegang tot de gegevens worden beperkt. De diensten moeten gegevens vernietigen die niet relevant blijken voor onderzoek van de diensten. De CTIVD concludeert dat de AIVD en de MIVD hun processen niet goed op orde hebben. Zo hadden groepen medewerkers onrechtmatig toegang tot persoonsgegevens. Ook werden grote hoeveelheden persoonsgegevens in meerdere gevallen te lang bewaard. De CTIVD stelt vast dat de problemen worden veroorzaakt door technische tekortkomingen in de systemen van de diensten. Ook schieten procedures tekort die de naleving van beleid en regelgeving moeten garanderen. Daarom doet de toezichthouder 13 aanbevelingen ter verbetering. Dit onderzoek heeft geleid tot een toezichtrapport over de verwerking van bulkdatasets door de AIVD en de MIVD\, gepubliceerd op 1 juli 2026. De ministers van BZK en Defensie hebben de rapporten met hun beleidsreacties en bijbehorende bijlage aan het parlement gestuurd. Ministers Heerma (BZK) en Yesilgöz (Defensie) stellen dat de AIVD en de MIVD het beeld herkennen dat door de CTIVD geschetst wordt. In een reactie op het rapport geven zij aan dat het oplossen van de problemen bij de diensten hoog op de agenda staat. Ook stellen zij dat een aantal van de conclusies en aanbevelingen wordt meegenomen in de aanstaande herziening van de Wet op de inlichtingen- en veiligheidsdiensten 2017 (Wiv 2017). \nLinks:\nAIVD en MIVD moeten bij bulkdataverwerking persoonlijke privacy beter beschermen \nAIVD en MIVD hebben hun processen nog steeds niet op orde

SUMMARY:#KetiKoti #Slavernij afgeschaft in NL (1863) / Dag der Vrijheden / Emancipation Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:Ketikoti (uitspraak: [ˈkɪti ˈkɔti])\, abusievelijk ook wel Keti-koti of Keti Koti\, is een van oorsprong Surinaamse feestdag\, jaarlijks op 1 juli\, ter viering van de afschaffing van de slavernij. \nDe naam stamt uit het Sranantongo en betekent ‘ketenen gebroken’. Ook in Nederland wordt Ketikoti gevierd. Op de (Engelstalige) Bovenwindse Eilanden Saba\, Sint Eustatius en Sint Maarten wordt deze feestdag Emancipation Day genoemd. Op 1 juli 1863 schafte het Koninkrijk der Nederlanden met de Emancipatiewet de slavernij af in de kolonie Suriname en de kolonie Curaçao en onderhorigheden. Er kwamen op dat moment ruim 45.000 oorspronkelijk Afrikaanse slaven vrij\, 34.441 slaven in Suriname en 11.800 in Aruba\, Bonaire\, Curaçao\, Sint Maarten\, Sint Eustatius en Saba. De slavenhouders werden voor elke slaaf met 300 gulden schadeloos gesteld\, maar de vrijgemaakte mensen kregen zelf niets en werden in Suriname nog tien jaar verplicht op contractbasis het werk te blijven doen\, soms onder dezelfde erbarmelijke omstandigheden. Om die reden erkende onder anderen premier Rutte dat het op zijn plaats was om in 2023\, 150 jaar na 1873\, de afschaffing van de slavernij groots te herdenken. \nLinks:\nKeti Koti Festival

SUMMARY:A12 blokkade : Stop fossiele subsidies! Stop genocide!
DESCRIPTION:Fossiele subsidies financieren genocide\, daarom blokkeren Extinction Rebellion (XR) en Utrecht voor Palestina (U4P) op 4 juli 2026 opnieuw de A12. \nNederland geeft jaarlijks tussen 39\,7 en 46\,4 miljard euro aan de fossiele industrie\, die jaagt de klimaatcrisis aan én bewapent het Zionistische regime. In de top 10 van ontvangers van Nederlandse fossiele subsidies staan Shell\, ExxonMobil en BP. Diezelfde bedrijven leveren meer dan 35% van de olie aan Israël. XR en U4P gaan opnieuw de straat op\, ondanks dat bij de vorige blokkade op 25 april meer dan 400 rebellen werden gearresteerd\, vaak met buitensporig geweld. Maar repressie maakt hen alleen vastberadener. Stop fossiele subsidies! Stop genocide! XR en U4P eisen: \n-Direct einde aan fossiele subsidies.\n-Volledig wapenembargo tegen Israël (offensief én defensief).\n-Algemene economische sancties tegen Israël.\n-Publieke investeringen terugtrekken zolang bezetting\, apartheid en genocide voortduren.\n-Schuldkwijtschelding voor het Mondiale Zuiden. \nDat geld moet naar betaalbare woningen\, zorg\, dekoloniaal herstel en een rechtvaardige samenleving\, wereldwijd. \nLinks:\nStop fossiele subsidies!

SUMMARY:#SkillsRightNow #WorldYouthSkillsDay Wereld Jonge Talentendag / Werelddag van Vaardigheden van Jongeren 2026
DESCRIPTION:In 2014\, the United Nations General Assembly declared 15 July as World Youth Skills Day\, to celebrate the strategic importance of equipping young people with skills for employment\, decent work and entrepreneurship. \nThe world of work is changing rapidly. Artificial intelligence\, the green transition and growing social complexity are transforming how we learn\, work and participate in society. To thrive in this changing landscape\, young people need more than technical skills alone. They need a balanced set of competencies that combines technical\, digital\, AI\, green\, social-emotional and civic skills with the human qualities that technology cannot replace. Under the theme “Skills for a shared future”\,  this year’s World Youth Skills Day activities will spotlight the urgent need for innovative youth skills programmes—initiatives that empower young people not only to adapt\, but to lead with empathy\, bridge cultural divides\, build resilience\, and actively shape a more sustainable and inclusive tomorrow. Youth unemployment remains a major economic and social challenge worldwide. According to the ILO’s Global Employment Trends for Youth 2024\, the global youth unemployment rate fell to 13% in 2023 – a 15-year low and below the pre-pandemic level of 13.8%. However\, recovery has been uneven: in the Arab States\, East Asia\, and South-East Asia\, rates were higher in 2023 than in 2019. Meanwhile\, one in five young people globally – and over a quarter of young women – were NEET (not in employment\, education\, or training)\, with young women’s NEET rate (28.1%) more than double that of young men (13.1%). Even for those who work\, decent jobs remain scarce. Over half of young workers are in informal employment\, and in low-income countries\, three in four hold only self-employment or temporary jobs. Investment in green and blue sectors could create 8.4 million youth jobs by 2030\, but these must come with decent working conditions – including fundamental rights like equal pay\, collective bargaining\, and protection from harassment. \nEducation and training are central to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda. The vision of the Incheon Declaration: Education 2030 is fully captured by Sustainable Development Goal 4 “Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all”. Education 2030 devotes considerable attention to technical and vocational skills development\, specifically regarding access to affordable quality Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET); the acquisition of technical and vocational skills for employment\, decent work and entrepreneurship; the elimination of gender disparity and ensuring access for the vulnerable. In this context\, TVET is expected to address the multiple demands of an economic\, social and environmental nature by helping youth and adults develop the skills they need for employment\, decent work and entrepreneurship\, promoting equitable\, inclusive and sustainable economic growth\, and supporting transitions to green economies and environmental sustainability. TVET can equip youth with the skills required to access the world of work\, including skills for self-employment. TVET can also improve responsiveness to changing skill-demands by companies and communities\, increase productivity and increase wage levels. TVET can reduce access barriers to the world of work\, for example through work-based learning\, and ensuring that skills gained are recognised and certified. TVET can also offer skills development opportunities for low-skilled people who are under- or unemployed\, out of school youth and individuals not in education\, employment and training (NEETs). \nLinks:\nWorld Youth Skills Day

SUMMARY:75th Anniversary of the Refugee Convention / Verdrag betreffende de status van vluchtelingen / Convention relating to the Status of Refugees - ondertekening (1951)
DESCRIPTION:Het Verdrag betreffende de status van vluchtelingen of Vluchtelingenverdrag (Convention relating to the Status of Refugees) werd op 28 juli 1951 opgesteld tijdens een door de Verenigde Naties georganiseerde conventie na voorbereidende beraadslagingen in 1950 te New York en in 1951 te Genève. \nIn 2026 op 28 juli precies 75 jaar geleden spraken landen via dit VN-Vluchtelingenverdrag af dat mensen die vluchten voor oorlog en vervolging bescherming verdienen. Het verdrag definieert wie in aanmerking komt voor de status van vluchteling\, het bepaalt dat landen die zijn aangesloten bij het verdrag asiel zullen verlenen aan personen die daar een aanvraag voor indienen en bepaalt dat aan een al dan niet als vluchteling erkende asielzoeker bepaalde rechten worden toegekend. Het verdrag bepaalt de rechten van vluchtelingen uit conflictsituaties voor 1951\, terwijl een in 1967 opgesteld protocol bij de conventie ook de rechten van vluchtelingen van na die datum regelt. Basisbeginsel van het verdrag is de regel\, dat iemand die is gevlucht niet teruggestuurd mag worden naar het herkomstland als er gegronde vrees voor vervolging bestaat\, het zogenaamde non-refoulement principe. Dit beginsel heeft zich in de loop van de decennia nadat het verdrag in werking is getreden\, ontwikkeld tot internationaal gewoonterecht\, wat betekent dat het overal ter wereld voor alle landen is gaan gelden\, ook landen die niet zijn aangesloten bij het verdrag en ongeacht de status als vluchteling of niet. Dit verdrag kwam in de plaats van de gebrekkige regelingen die er voorheen onder de Volkenbond\, de voorloper van de VN\, tot stand waren gekomen en stond sterk in het teken van de gebeurtenissen in de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Het verdrag (en protocol) is anno 2023 door meer dan 145 staten ondertekend en geratificeerd. Enige landen maakten een voorbehoud. \nLinks:\nThe 1951 Refugee Convention and 1967 Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees \nMensen op de vlucht help je.

SUMMARY:#HumanTrafficking #EndHumanTrafficking World Day Against Trafficking in Persons / Werelddag tegen Mensenhandel 2026
DESCRIPTION:Human trafficking is a crime that exploits children\, men and women for numerous purposes including forced labour and sex. \nTrafficking in persons is a serious crime and a grave violation of human rights. Every year\, thousands of men\, women and children fall into the hands of traffickers\, in their own countries and abroad. Almost every country in the world is affected by trafficking\, whether as a country of origin\, transit or destination for victims. UNODC\, as guardian of the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime (UNTOC) and the Protocols thereto\, assists States in their efforts to implement the Protocol to Prevent\, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons (Trafficking in Persons Protocol). The Protocol to Prevent\, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons defines Trafficking in Persons as the recruitment\, transportation\, transfer\, harbouring or receipt of persons\, by means of the threat or use of force or other forms of coercion\, of abduction\, of fraud\, of deception\, of the abuse of power or of a position of vulnerability or of the giving or receiving of payments or benefits to achieve the consent of a person having control over another person\, for the purpose of exploitation. Exploitation shall include\, at a minimum\, the exploitation of the prostitution of others or other forms of sexual exploitation\, forced labour or services\, slavery or practices similar to slavery\, servitude or the removal of organs. The World Day against Trafficking in Persons was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly\, in its resolution A/RES/68/192. Theme 2026\, “Trapped Behind the Scam\,” draws attention to a rapidly expanding form of human trafficking in which transnational organized crime groups exploit people to carry out industrial-scale financial fraud. Victims are trafficked for forced criminality and compelled to participate in online scam operations. This form of exploitation is closely linked to cybercrime\, financial fraud\, money laundering\, and corruption\, demonstrating the increasingly interconnected nature of organized crime. \nLinks:\nWorld Day Against Trafficking in Persons – 30 July

SUMMARY:2026 Morocco–Spain border incident / Ceuta migrant crossing crisis
DESCRIPTION:In late July 2026\, an estimated 60\,000 people\, predominantly young men\, breached and crossed the border from Morocco into the Spanish autonomous city of Ceuta in North Africa\, with smaller numbers attempting to cross to another Spanish autonomous city\, Melilla\, about 400 kilometres away along the Mediterranean coastline. \nThis overwhelmed local reception facilities and prompted the government of Ceuta to request that the Spanish government declare a national emergency. Most entered by swimming around the Tarajal and Benzú breakwaters or by crossing on foot along the shoreline. By 31 July\, Spanish officials said about 50\,000 people had voluntarily returned to Morocco. By 4 August\, at least 99 of the migrants were reported to have died as a result of the incident. The European Union will hold emergency talks on Tuesday\, August 3\, to discuss the migration crisis in Ceuta after tense exchanges between Spain and other member states. Twenty-two member states issued a joint letter calling for co-ordinated action and the strengthening of the EU’s external borders\, after some 60\,000 migrants entered the Spanish enclave from Morocco. Ceuta and Melilla are two autonomous cities of Spain located on the north coast of Africa. The Morocco–Spain border these cities form part of is the European Union’s only external land border in Africa. Under a special condition of the Schengen Agreement\, border checks are done on exit from the cities – no one can travel from Ceuta or Melilla to mainland Spain without being identified by the National Police at the port or the airport. Morocco claims sovereignty over both cities\, while Spain regards them as an integral part of its national territory since the 1400s. \nLinks:\nWhy Did 60\,000 Migrants Cross from Morocco into Spain’s Ceuta?

SUMMARY:Roma Holocaust Memorial Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:Monument to the Memory of the Holocaust of the Romani (Gypsies) in the site of German Nazi crimes during the second world war\, Borzęcin\, Brzesko County\, Poland\, click picture to enlarge By Jakub Hałun – Own work\, CC BY-SA 4.0\nRoma Holocaust Memorial Day (known by various slightly different names) is a memorial day that commemorates the victims of the Sinti and Romani Holocaust\, which resulted in the murder of an estimated 220\,000–500\,000 Sinti and Romani people by Nazi Germany and its collaborators during World War II. \nThe date of 2 August was chosen for the memorial because on the night of 2–3 August 1944\, 2\,897 Roma\, mostly women\, children and elderly people\, were killed in the Gypsy family camp (Zigeunerfamilienlager) at Auschwitz concentration camp. Some countries have chosen to commemorate the genocide on different dates. The European Parliament on 15 April 2015\, declared “that a European day should be dedicated to commemorating the victims of the genocide of the Roma during World War II and that this day should be called the European Roma Holocaust Memorial Day”. The Council of Europe also holds commemoration ceremonies. \nLinks:\nThe History and Significance of August 2\, Roma Holocaust Memorial Day”

SUMMARY:Day Commemorating the Victims of Acts of Violence Based on Religion or Belief 2026
DESCRIPTION:The United Nations General Assembly decided to designate 22 August as the International Day Commemorating the Victims of Acts of Violence Based on Religion or Belief. \nThe General Assembly\, in its resolution A/RES/73/296\, designated 22 August as the International Day Commemorating the Victims of Acts of Violence Based on Religion or Belief recognizing the importance of providing victims of acts of violence based on religion or belief and members of their families with appropriate support and assistance in accordance with applicable law. It strongly deplored all acts of violence against persons on the basis of their religion or belief\, as well as any such acts directed against their homes\, businesses\, properties\, schools\, cultural centres or places of worship\, as well as all attacks on and in religious places\, sites and shrines that are in violation of international law. A previous resolution establishing the International Day of Remembrance of and Tribute to the Victims of Terrorism (A/RES/72/165) also recognized that working together to enhance the implementation of existing legal regimes that protect individuals against discrimination and hate crimes\, increasing interreligious\, interfaith and intercultural efforts and expanding human rights education are important first steps in combating incidents of intolerance\, discrimination and violence against individuals on the basis of religion or belief. \nBy proclaiming an International Day Commemorating the Victims of Acts of Violence Based on Religion or Belief\, the General Assembly recalled that States have the primary responsibility to promote and protect human rights\, including the human rights of persons belonging to religious minorities\, including their right to exercise their religion or belief freely. Freedom of religion or belief\, freedom of opinion and expression\, the right to peaceful assembly and the right to freedom of association are interdependent\, interrelated and mutually reinforcing. They are enshrined in articles 18\, 19 and 20 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Upholding these rights plays an important role in the fight against all forms of intolerance and of discrimination based on religion or belief. The open\, constructive and respectful debate of ideas\, as well as interreligious\, interfaith and intercultural dialogue\, at the local\, national\, regional and international levels\, can play a positive role in combating religious hatred\, incitement and violence. Furthermore\, the exercise of the right to freedom of opinion and expression and full respect for the freedom to seek\, receive and impart information can play a positive role in strengthening democracy and combating religious intolerance. \nLinks:\nDay Commemorating the Victims of Acts of Violence Based on Religion or Belief
