December 19th marks International Day for Women Searching for Missing Persons
The International Day was adopted on December 19th in honor of women who have been tirelessly advocating for years in Syria and beyond to uncover the fate of the missing and to uphold the rights of families to truth and justice. They play a crucial role in gathering evidence, preserving memory, and confronting attempts to forget, despite the security and social challenges they face. This recognition is an important symbolic step, but it must be translated into active participation in policy-making and mechanisms, supported by legal and psychological assistance for women and families of the disappeared, to ensure their right to know their loved ones' fate and to achieve justice. Data indicate that there are over 177,000 enforced disappearances since 2011, with more than 45,000 deaths, including children and women, in the context of detention and prisons operated by the Syrian regime.
