International Human Rights Day 2012 march through Suva
Channel: Fiji Women's Crisis Centre
Date: 2012-12-10

About 100 women, men and children marched through Suva for the first time in four years to mark International Human Rights Day on 10 December 2012. Led by the Fiji Women's Crisis Centre with the support of some members of the NGO Coalition on Human Rights the marchers called for the end to dictatorship and militarism. Despite initially having their permit rejected, a permit was finally issued. The last march to mark International Human Rights Day was held in 2008.
