On October 6, 2026, our foundation, Stichting Justice and Human Rights, raised awareness about human rights violations and ongoing injustices in Turkey before the international community during the plenary session of the 2026 Warsaw Human Dimension Conference, organized by the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) in Warsaw.
At the conference, which brought together representatives of the 57 OSCE participating States, diplomatic missions, international human rights organizations, civil society organizations, academics and experts, we presented our assessments on human rights issues in Turkey and our expectations from the OSCE.
We shared with the participants our thematic reports and information brochures, meticulously prepared by our dedicated volunteers and based on data from international institutions and reliable sources.
Throughout the conference, we held productive bilateral meetings with representatives of Northern European countries, particularly the Netherlands, OSCE officials, representatives of civil society organizations, academics and human rights experts.
One of the most significant achievements of these meetings was the substantial expansion of our foundation’s international communication and cooperation network. Thanks to these new connections, we have established a lasting communication ground through which we can directly share our future reports, research and other work on human rights violations in Turkey with relevant country representatives and international human rights organizations.
We also held a private meeting with Ms. Rachel, a well-known American human rights activist working in the field of international human rights. In this meeting, where we discussed in detail the grievances and human rights violations in Turkey, she specifically requested that our future reports and studies be shared with her as well.
This activity represents an important step in increasing our foundation’s international visibility, developing sustainable relationships with human rights organizations, and keeping the violations in Turkey on the agenda of international mechanisms.
We would like to thank all our volunteers who contributed, from the preparation of the reports to the conference activities.
