UN human rights office faces survival mode due to $90M funding cut, slashing staff and operations in crisis zones.
The UN human rights office is operating in "survival mode" due to a $90 million funding shortfall, forcing 300 job cuts and reducing critical operations in conflict zones like Sudan, Gaza, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Staff reductions have curtailed fact-finding missions, country visits, and treaty compliance reviews, undermining global efforts to monitor abuses and support victims amid escalating crises.
Despite rising violations and humanitarian needs, donor nations including the U.S., UK, and Netherlands have cut contributions, prioritizing domestic and defense spending.
The funding crisis threatens the integrity of the global human rights framework at a time of worsening conflicts and growing anti-rights movements.
