Brot für die Welt und das Deutsche Institut für Menschenrechte würdigen in der 11. Werner Lottje Lecture am 25. April 2024 die nicaraguanische Menschenrechtsverteidigerin Wendy Flores Acevedo, Koordinatorin des Colectivo de Derechos Humanos Nicaragua Nunca Más.

Wendy Flores Acevedo setzt sich gemeinsam mit dem Colectivo aus dem Exil für die Rechte von Opfern der nicaraguanischen Diktatur ein, macht auf Menschenrechtsverletzungen in Nicaragua aufmerksam und trägt zur Erinnerungs- und Bildungsarbeit bei. Sie ist ein Bezugspunkt für die nicaraguanische Exilgemeinde und die internationale Gemeinschaft.

Zusammen mit Gästen aus Politik und Zivilgesellschaft werden folgende Fragen diskutiert:

Wie arbeiten nicaraguanische Menschenrechtsverteidiger*innen im und aus dem Exil? Mit welchen Problemen und Widerständen sind sie konfrontiert? Welche Art von internationalem Engagement ist notwendig, damit Menschenrechtsverteidiger*innen wie Wendy Flores ihre Arbeit auch im Exil fortsetzen können? Und wie können ihre Forderungen nach Gerechtigkeit unterstützt werden?

Die 11. Werner-Lottje Lecture findet statt am Donnerstag, den 25.04.2024, von 18:00 Uhr bis 20:00 Uhr im Haus der EKD in Berlin. Bei Interesse melden Sie sich bitte vorher online an.

Climate justice was a central theme in many discussions and rounds of negotiations, but issues surrounding climate finance prevented an agreement from being reached. Negotiations on the global adaptation target, for example, must start again from scratch. The nexus of climate, peace and security was largely overlooked in the negotiations, as well as in the action agenda presented by the Turkish COP31 Presidency.
