I joined international jurists and human rights defenders in signing onto a joint letter and underlying legal brief urging States to include the crime of gender apartheid in the draft crimes against humanity (CAH) treaty.

Women and girls who live under the Taliban in Afghanistan and the Islamic Republic in Iran are battling extreme, institutionalised and systematised gender-based oppression and domination. This treatment has a name: gender apartheid.

The UN General Assembly’s Sixth Committee (Legal) is scheduled to debate the proposed CAH treaty in October.
Member States have the choice to recognise the CAH of gender apartheid in the treaty. Codifying this crime will provide the international community with the necessary tools to mobilize against apartheid regimes and hold perpetrators of gender apartheid accountable.

We can’t miss this chance to make gender apartheid a crime recognized under international law.
