HIGHLIGHTS OF RESULTS ND7 Public support for equal, inclusive and diverse societies, without discrimination, increases. The UN Free & Equal campaign launched four mini-campaigns reaching more than 14.3 million people in 2019 alone through campaign videos. The campaign also reached more than 187,000 people through its Facebook, Instagram and Twitter accounts. In March, the campaign celebrated International Transgender Day of Visibility with a short, animated video. In May, International Day against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia was marked with a campaign celebrating political progress achieved by human rights activists and LGBTI communities in countries around the world. In October, a mini-campaign for Spirit Day called on allies to stand up for the rights of LGBTI youth experiencing bullying. In December, a minicampaign was launched to laud the dedication of some of Africa’s most inspiring allies, including Willy Mutunga, former Chief Justice and President of the Supreme Court of Kenya; Seun Kuti, a musician and activist from Nigeria; Bishop Ssenyonjo, a theologian from Uganda; and Alice Nkom, a lawyer from Cameroon. The Independent Expert on the enjoyment of human rights of persons with albinism engaged with various partners, including a dermatology company, to launch the largest worldwide awareness-raising campaign on albinism. This included NYDG’s ColourFull campaign, which used billboards in New York’s Times Square on International Albinism Awareness Day to advocate for the rights of persons with albinism. Similar billboard campaigns were launched in other cities, including London and Hong Kong. In conjunction with the campaign, a consultation was held in New York bringing together Member States, UN entities, media representatives and communications specialists to reinforce advocacy efforts to combat discrimination against persons with albinism. The Independent Expert continued to advocate and promote “Champions for Albinism” to increase dialogue in civic space on persons with albinism. UN Human Rights has set up a dedicated web page (https://albinism.ohchr.org/) on its website that features champion advocates for albinism. The Independent Expert visited South Africa during national albinism month. While there, the President of South Africa delivered a national statement that acknowledged the need to address challenges faced by persons with albinism. Following the 2018 design phase, the Association of Persons with Disabilities in TimorLeste (ADTL) implemented a national campaign on the rights of persons with disabilities, with support from the Office. The campaign was based on a strategy that was drafted after consultations with persons with disabilities in three municipalities, interviews with organizations conducting behavioural change campaigns and desk research. The campaign featured inspiring persons with disabilities who are positive role models that embrace inclusion and make use of traditional and social media. Radio talk shows on the rights of persons with disabilities went on the air, in May, and preparations for three short videos/films commenced in November. One of the three videos, which highlighted terminology that should be used to respect the rights of persons with disabilities, was launched on International Day of Persons with Disabilities. The national campaign aims to raise awareness about the equal rights of persons with disabilities and reduce the use of stigmatizing language and discriminatory behaviour. It also emphasizes the importance of ratifying CRPD. The ADTL received financial support to carry out the campaign under the joint UN agency project entitled Empower for Change in order to reduce discrimination and violence against persons with disabilities. The campaign was funded by the UN Partnership to Promote the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
