The Human Rights Council passed a resolution on the protection against violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

Atika describes her difficult day as refugee.

Arabs say, “Who lives with a people for 40 days has become one of them.” How is it, then, that we have lived here for so many years now and are still living half-lives?
