Jenn Lawrence elected as a Trustee of Human Rights Watch UK

Jenn Lawrence has been elected as a Trustee of Human Rights Watch UK, the UK legal entity of the New York-headquartered nonprofit watchdog. Jenn said:

“I’m delighted to have been elected to the Board of Trustees at Human Rights Watch UK.

HRW investigates and reports on human rights abuses worldwide, campaigning to change policy and intervening in strategic litigation where appropriate. HRW’s recent work has included investigations into the human rights implications of the curtailing of the right to protest in the United Kingdom, the Israel-Gaza war, the treatment of the Uyghurs in Türkiye and state censorship in Russia.

 I’ve been following the organisation for some time now and am looking forward to working with the Board to further matters of particular impact for those in the UK.”
