Standing with the Oppressed: The Cost of Conscience
This conversation brings together voices from law, policy and activism to reflect on what it truly means to uphold justice, speak truth to power and bear the cost of conscience in increasingly constrained civic spaces.
The discussion will examine the case of Imaan Mazari Hazir and Hadi Ali Chattha, who have been incarcerated for over 100 days amid concerns over due process and access to their basic legal rights. Their continued imprisonment raises urgent questions about due process, access to justice and the protection of fundamental rights.
