#Thread: Ms H.A., a #refugeesGR from Ethiopia, was 6 months pregnant when she arrived on the island of #Samos, #Greece in 2019. Despite her pregnancy Ms H.A. was ignored by the Greek authorities and was forced to live in precarious conditions in a tent for nearly 3 months.
Ms H.A. took the case to the European Court for Human Rights with the help of @rlc_berlin and the Greek Government agreed to compensate Ms H.A. en.rlc-berlin.org/post/press-rel…
#refugeesGR
Despite that decision, the living conditions for #refugeesGR in #Samos remain precarious. At the same time Greek media completely ignore any coverage of #refugeesGR related issues, apart from coverage that criminalizes them creating negative attitudes.
Media training on how to reporting #migration is essential for the media. Media training, however, is also essential for CSOs who could use such tools for advocacy.
We are happy that we took part in the media advocacy training of @rlc_berlin who have achieved such a great success at the ECHR. We couldn't be prouder!

According to trans activist Paris Lee, trans people in Britain, especially children, face higher risk of mental health problems and self-harm. Instead of support, UK media rave about “evil trans agenda”: theguardian.com/global/comment…
In 2018, UK Government launched its gender recognition consultation. British media responded with disproportionate coverage of negative (and sometimes outright false) stories about trans and gender non-conforming people. thedailybeast.com/inside-the-poi…
Is the ‘scandal’ about threat to Oxford professor Selina Todd just one small part of this propaganda? For one, Oxford has been less than transparent about the nature of threats she received. Have the police been informed? Many questions remain... bbc.co.uk/news/education…
