<p><strong>Rajgangpur, Odisha – 10 December 2025</strong><br><br>On the occasion of <strong>International Human Rights Day</strong>, members of the <strong>International Human Rights Commission (IHRC Corporation)</strong> and the <strong>National Human Rights Organization (NHRO), Rajgangpur Chapter</strong>, carried out a humanitarian and educational programme at <strong>Shanti Child Care Center in Ranibandh</strong>, focusing on dignity, protection and the empowerment of children.</p>



<p>Human Rights Day, observed globally on 10 December, commemorates the adoption of the <strong>Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR)</strong> by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948. The 2025 observance highlighted the theme <strong>“Human Rights: Our Everyday Essentials”</strong>, emphasising the universal right to education, safety and equal opportunity.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Community Support Programme at Shanti Child Care Center</strong></h2>



<p>The local IHRC–NHRO team organised a comprehensive outreach initiative that combined humanitarian assistance with awareness-raising activities:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>distribution of <strong>notebooks, pencils, scales, sweets, biscuits, chocolates and Vaseline</strong> to the children;</li>



<li>donation of a <strong>new washing machine</strong> to the centre, supporting its daily operations and improving sanitary conditions;</li>



<li>an educational session led by <strong>Mohammed Naushad</strong>, President of NHRO, who discussed the meaning of human rights in everyday life and the importance of protection and dignity for every child.</li>
</ul>



<p>The programme gathered the children residing at the centre, allowing them to participate in learning activities and receive essential supplies aimed at improving their well-being.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Participants and Community Engagement</strong></h2>



<p>The event was attended by community representatives and volunteers, including:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Mohammed Naushad</strong> – President, NHRO and IHRC Press Journalist</li>



<li><strong>Sheikh Wasim Raza Khan</strong></li>



<li><strong>Hemant Kumar Singh</strong></li>



<li><strong>Manjeet Singh Saluj</strong></li>



<li><strong>Pooja Sahu</strong> – Guest of Honour</li>



<li><strong>Priyadarshini Bhoi</strong> – Guest of Honour</li>



<li><strong>Sharat Kumar Pati</strong></li>
</ul>



<p>Photographs from the event show active interaction between volunteers and children, the presentation of educational materials, and the ceremonial handover of the donated washing machine.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Human Rights in Action: A Grassroots Perspective</strong></h2>



<p>This initiative reflects IHRC Corporation’s mission to <strong>promote, educate and uphold human rights at both institutional and community levels</strong>. While international forums focus on policy, local actions such as the programme at Shanti Child Care Center demonstrate how practical support can improve living conditions and awareness among vulnerable groups.</p>



<p>By combining education, material support and community involvement, the Rajgangpur event exemplifies a human-centred approach to advocacy that IHRC Corporation continues to strengthen globally.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Humanitarian outreach reflects IHRC’s commitment to compassion, education, and social responsibility</h4>



<p><strong>Yamuna Nagar, Haryana – 20 October 2025</strong></p>



<p>The <strong>International Human Rights Commission (IHRC Corporation)</strong> continues to advance its global mission of humanitarian service and social responsibility through community-based action. On the occasion of <strong>Diwali in Yamuna Nagar, Haryana</strong>, IHRC volunteers <strong>Mr. Sish Paul</strong> and <strong>Mr. Rajesh Goyal</strong> carried out a compassionate initiative, distributing <strong>blankets to people in need</strong> under the banner of IHRC.</p>



<p>The activity, part of IHRC’s ongoing social responsibility campaign, was designed to bring <strong>practical assistance and human warmth</strong> to those facing difficult living conditions during the colder months. It also served as an opportunity to raise <strong>awareness of solidarity, empathy, and civic engagement</strong> within local communities.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Empowering communities through compassion</h4>



<p>This local humanitarian effort reflects IHRC’s broader approach — combining <strong>human rights advocacy, educational engagement, and direct community support</strong>. By empowering individuals to take action at the grassroots level, IHRC reinforces the principle that <strong>human dignity is universal</strong>, and that <strong>every act of kindness contributes to building a more just and compassionate society</strong>.</p>



<p>The initiative was conducted with the support and coordination of <strong>H.E. Bishop Dr. Samsher Khan</strong>, <strong>IHRC Peace Ambassador, High Commissioner, MNVC SMM, and IHRC Press Journalist</strong>, who emphasised that service to humanity is the foundation of sustainable peace and development.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>“We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to serve and to make a difference in people’s lives. Our mission is to promote compassion, equality, and human dignity — these are the true foundations of peace,”<br>stated <strong>H.E. Dr. Samsher Khan</strong>, expressing appreciation for the encouragement received from <strong>Prof. h.c. Rafal Marcin Wasik, IHRC Secretary-General, Peacemaker</strong>, and <strong>H.E. Dawid Szabłowski, Director of the International Relations &amp; Media</strong>.</p>
</blockquote>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Building standards of humanitarian excellence</h4>



<p>IHRC’s initiatives in India form part of a wider regional effort to <strong>enhance humanitarian standards, promote civic responsibility, and encourage education on human rights principles</strong>. Through coordinated actions led by committed volunteers, the organisation continues to foster cooperation between civil society, educational institutions, and local leadership — creating <strong>a culture of care and responsibility</strong> aligned with IHRC’s global vision.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>IHRC Nigeria Highlights the Urgent Call to Protect and Empower Girls Facing Religious and Cultural Exploitation</strong></h2>



<p><strong>Abuja, Nigeria – October 2025.</strong><br>As the world commemorates the <em>International Day of the Girl Child 2025</em>, the International Human Rights Commission (IHRC Corporation) joins the global community in amplifying this year’s theme — <strong>“The Girl I Am, The Change I Lead: Girls in the Frontline of Crisis.”</strong> The message resonates deeply across Nigeria, where countless girls continue to endure the devastating effects of religious manipulation, ritual abuse, and cultural exploitation.</p>



<p>Across various communities, what should serve as a sanctuary of faith and moral guidance has, in some instances, turned into a setting of fear and psychological harm. Unscrupulous spiritual figures and false prophets exploit the innocence of young girls, often with the misguided consent of parents who seek protection or miracles. Under the guise of religion, these girls are subjected to <strong>forced initiations, ritual practices, and mental trauma</strong> — acts that erode their dignity, deprive them of education, and extinguish their hope for a brighter future.</p>



<p>This disturbing trend forms the core of <strong>IHRC Nigeria’s reflection</strong> for this year’s observance. The Commission emphasises that girls must not be seen merely as victims but as <strong>agents of transformation</strong> — capable of leading change, promoting justice, and building peace even amid adversity.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>“When we empower the girl, we shape the destiny of a generation. The girl child is not a victim of the system; she is the architect of a better world.”<br>— <strong>Dr. Duru Hezekiah</strong>, Head of Diplomatic Mission, IHRC Nigeria.</p>
</blockquote>



<p>Under the leadership of Dr. Hezekiah, <strong>IHRC Nigeria Mission</strong> continues to collaborate with national institutions, development agencies, and civil society partners to <strong>strengthen child protection mechanisms</strong>, advocate for <strong>equal educational opportunities</strong>, and uphold <strong>the fundamental rights of girls</strong> across the country.</p>



<p>The Commission reiterates its unwavering stance:<br><strong>no child should ever be used as an instrument of ritual, manipulation, or spiritual exploitation.</strong></p>



<p>IHRC calls upon <strong>families, faith leaders, educators, and local communities</strong> to take shared responsibility in building an environment where every girl can grow in <strong>safety, dignity, and freedom</strong>.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>“When we protect the girl child, we protect the future,”<br>— added <strong>Dr. Duru Hezekiah</strong>.</p>
</blockquote>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Raising Awareness, Building Leaders for Tomorrow</h3>



<p><strong>MELBOURNE, Australia – September 2025</strong></p>



<p>In a <strong>landmark initiative dedicated to the next generation</strong>, Melbourne witnessed a dynamic workshop focused on strengthening awareness of <strong>children’s human rights</strong>. The event, entitled <em>“Empowering Children – Shaping Tomorrow”</em>, gathered young members of the <strong>Melbourne Rupavahini Muthuhara Children’s Society</strong>, a recognised Australian organisation committed to cultural and educational advancement for children of Sri Lankan heritage.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Interactive Learning for Children’s Rights</h2>



<p>The sessions were <strong>expertly led by Ms. Vathsala Dasanayake</strong>, Zonal Coordinator for Melbourne, officially appointed by the <strong>International Human Rights Commission (IHRC)</strong>. Her approach combined clarity with creativity – introducing children to their rights, explaining accessible pathways for exercising them, and highlighting the <strong>shared responsibility of adults in ensuring protection</strong>.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p><em>“Children are not only the future but also the present foundation of society. Safeguarding their rights today means securing a more just and equal tomorrow,”</em> underlined Ms. Dasanayake during the workshop.</p>
</blockquote>



<p>Through <strong>dramatisations, group exercises and open discussions</strong>, the workshop successfully transformed abstract legal concepts into tangible and relatable lessons.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Youth as Active Participants</h2>



<p>One of the most striking aspects of the event was the <strong>active involvement of children themselves</strong>, who demonstrated curiosity, leadership, and responsibility. Their participation reaffirmed the principle that <strong>youth must be seen not only as beneficiaries of rights but also as agents of positive change</strong>.</p>



<p>The workshop highlighted the urgency of equipping children with knowledge and confidence, strengthening their role as both <strong>leaders of tomorrow and stakeholders of today</strong>.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Next Steps in the Project</h2>



<p>This Melbourne initiative represents the <strong>first phase of a broader programme</strong> designed to nurture children’s awareness of human rights across Sri Lankan communities abroad. The <strong>second phase</strong> has already been scheduled for <strong>11 October 2025</strong>, ensuring the continuity and deepening of these efforts.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Northern Syria – September 2025</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Crisis in the Education Sector</h2>



<p>The ongoing crisis in the educational sector in the liberated areas of northern Syria highlights a painful reality that goes beyond administrative shortcomings — it strikes at the dignity and status of teachers in a society that could not have endured without their resilience.</p>



<p>From <strong>Azaz and Al-Bab to Jarabulus, Marea, and Afrin</strong>, these cities and villages have never been mere dots on the map. They are living arenas of struggle, where the price of freedom and dignity was paid in full. At the centre of this struggle stood the <strong>teacher</strong>: in tents, in destroyed schools, and in frontline classrooms under bombardment, striving to prevent an entire generation from falling into ignorance, extremism, or despair.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Salaries Suspended, Silence from the Authorities</h2>



<p>More than fourteen years after their sacrifices began, teachers are now facing an uncertain fate. Salaries, once provided through the Turkish side, have been suspended for nearly two months. Meanwhile, the <strong>Ministry of Education of the Syrian Interim Government</strong> remains silent — offering no official statement, no timeline for payment, and no explanation to teachers who are enduring harsh living conditions.</p>



<p>According to informed sources, the Turkish side has already submitted files to integrate teachers into the institutions of the Syrian Interim Government and secure their positions. However, the process has stalled in ministry offices, turning into a clear case of administrative neglect.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Voices of Teachers and Activists</h2>



<p>Teachers are once again raising their voices — not only to demand their salaries, but to reclaim their role and mission.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p><em>“I taught my students not to submit to injustice, and now they ask me to accept humiliation and be treated as a burden. We preserved education when state institutions collapsed — how can our resilience be rewarded with neglect?”</em><br>— Teacher from northern rural Aleppo</p>
</blockquote>



<p>Activists have launched an online campaign under the hashtags:<br><strong>#Voice_of_the_Teacher #Teacher_is_a_Red_Line #Integrate_Northern_Syria_Teachers</strong><br>reminding the world that <strong>education cannot become a bargaining chip or a casualty of administrative chaos</strong>.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Clear and Legitimate Demands</h2>



<p>Teachers are calling for urgent action:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Immediate payment of overdue salaries</strong></li>



<li><strong>Issuance of an official statement clarifying the teachers’ situation</strong></li>



<li><strong>Recognition of education as a national priority, not a marginal issue</strong></li>
</ul>



<p>To continue marginalising teachers after all their sacrifices is not merely an institutional failure — it is a <strong>betrayal of a revolutionary journey that has lasted more than a decade</strong>. The future of education in northern Syria now depends on a decision, a voice, and a responsible stance.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Who Is Behind the Marginalisation?</h2>



<p>The pressing question remains: <strong>who is responsible for this neglect</strong>, particularly in light of the reappearance of former human rights violators from the collapsed Assad regime and the silence surrounding their return?</p>



<p>International, regional, and local organisations have already condemned the Ministry of Education’s marginalisation of teachers in northern Syria. Full reports are currently being prepared on the reality of education in Syria.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>IHRC ceremony recognises achievement in learning, sport and service to the community</strong></h3>



<p><strong>Manali, Himachal Pradesh (India) — 11 August 2025.</strong> During a school ceremony coordinated by <strong>International Human Rights Commission (IHRC) volunteers</strong>, <strong>around 40 pupils</strong> were recognised for <strong>outstanding results in academics and sport</strong>. <strong>Local community members assisting people in need</strong> also received acknowledgements, underscoring the event’s strong community spirit.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Partnership between the school and IHRC volunteers</h2>



<p>The initiative was organised by <strong>Kishan Lal</strong>, IHRC volunteer, with the support of <strong>H.E. Bishop Dr Samsher Khan</strong>, <strong>IHRC Peace Ambassador &amp; High Commissioner (MNVC SMM IHRC)</strong>, and a team of volunteers. Pupils received <strong>medals and trophies</strong> for sustained effort and fair play, while contributors engaged in <strong>poverty-alleviation activities</strong> were publicly thanked and <strong>commended</strong>.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>“<strong>Recognising children for their effort in the classroom and on the playing field builds confidence and strengthens social bonds.</strong> We thank the school, parents and volunteers whose quiet service truly changes the lives of families in need” said <strong>H.E. Bishop Dr Samsher Khan</strong> during the ceremony.</p>
</blockquote>



<p>Organisers expressed appreciation to <strong>Prof. h.c. Rafał Marcin Wasik</strong>, <strong>IHRC Secretary-General, Peacemaker</strong>, for strategic guidance, and to <strong>Dawid Szabłowski</strong>, <strong>Head of IHRC Press Department</strong>, for media support and documentation.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why it matters</h2>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Education and sport</strong> foster <strong>equal opportunity</strong>, resilience and social skills among young people.</li>



<li><strong>Public recognition</strong> strengthens motivation, <strong>work ethic</strong> and a culture of <strong>fair competition</strong>.</li>



<li><strong>Volunteering and local partnerships</strong> help deliver targeted support to the most vulnerable families.</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Event highlights</h2>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>~40 pupils</strong> were honoured for <strong>achievement in study and sport</strong>.</li>



<li><strong>Community helpers</strong> received acknowledgements for <strong>supporting people in difficult circumstances</strong>.</li>

</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Next steps</h2>



<p>The IHRC volunteer team in the region announced further <strong>education- and sport-focused activities</strong>, alongside <strong>community service projects</strong> aimed at equalising opportunities, developing talent and <strong>social inclusion</strong>.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p>



<p><strong>A Day of Joy, Support, and Solidarity for Human Rights</strong><br><em>23 June 2025, Kalyan, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India</em></p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Humanitarian Outreach Under the Banner of IHRC</h3>



<p>Today, the <strong>International Human Rights Commission (IHRC)</strong> held a heartfelt outreach program for schoolchildren in Kalyan, Mumbai, Maharashtra. The event was attended by <strong>H.E Bishop Dr. Samsher Khan, Peace Ambassador &amp; High Commissioner MNVC SMM IHRC</strong>, alongside <strong>Noor Mohammad Rahmani</strong> and <strong>Mehtab Rahmani</strong> (Zonal Volunteer Coordinators IHRC), as well as volunteers <strong>Sarfaraz Rais</strong> and <strong>Aftab Rahmani</strong>.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Supporting the Next Generation</h3>



<p>During the program, <strong>essential school supplies</strong>—including notebooks, pencils, erasers, and biscuits—were distributed to young students. This small yet meaningful gesture brought joy to the children and highlighted IHRC’s commitment to supporting vulnerable communities.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p><strong>“It was a very happy and good moment with the children, and we express our sincere gratitude to Dr. Samsher Khan for his presence and leadership. We thank God for enabling us to organize this impactful event under the IHRC banner.”</strong></p>
</blockquote>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Strengthening Community and Human Rights</h3>



<p>The event served as an opportunity to <strong>raise awareness</strong> about IHRC’s mission and encourage greater community involvement in supporting those in need. Many attendees proudly identified themselves with their IHRC ID, emphasizing the organization’s growing impact at the grassroots level.</p>



<p>Special thanks were extended to:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>H.E Bishop Dr. Samsher Khan</strong> for leading and inspiring the team,</li>



<li><strong>Prof. h.c. Rafal Marcin Wasik, IHRC Secretary-General, Peacemaker</strong>, for his visionary leadership,</li>



<li><strong>Dawid Szabłowski, Ambassador at Large and Intergovernmental Advisor, Head of IHRC Press Department</strong>, for continued support in promoting human rights initiatives.</li>
</ul>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Upholding Human Rights and Dignity</h3>



<p>At its core, today’s initiative embodies the universal principles enshrined in the <strong>Universal Declaration of Human Rights</strong>—notably, the right of every child to education, dignity, and development. The International Human Rights Commission (IHRC) remains unwavering in its commitment to advancing these rights, particularly for those most at risk of marginalization.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p><strong>“Our presence here is a reminder that every act of kindness is a concrete step towards a world where human rights are protected and every child’s potential is valued.”</strong></p>
</blockquote>



<p>IHRC reiterates its call to all stakeholders—governments, institutions, and civil society—to redouble their efforts in upholding and defending the rights of children everywhere. Only through collective action, solidarity, and respect for fundamental freedoms can we build resilient and just communities.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p><strong>“We thank everyone who contributed to making this day a beautiful and memorable occasion for the children of Mumbai. Working with IHRC is both a blessing and an honour, and we look forward to furthering our mission for human dignity and justice.”</strong></p>
</blockquote>
