In this episode of Human Rights Chat, New Tactics in Human Rights' host, Melissa McNeilly, speaks with Susie Hughes, cofounder and Executive Director of the International Coalition to End Transplant Abuse in China. The conversation delves into the harrowing issue of forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience in China, a practice that has been condemned worldwide. Susie shares her extensive work leading the coalition, which has grown into a powerful force for justice, coordinating over 70 organizations and more than 75 volunteers across multiple continents.
The episode explores the coalition’s efforts to raise awareness, prevent complicity, and push for accountability in the face of this massive human rights violation. A key focus is the 2019 China Tribunal, where Susie played a pivotal role as Director of Logistics, helping to bring global attention to the findings of this independent investigation into organ harvesting.
Join us as we examine the innovative tactics being used to fight this egregious abuse, as well as the coalition’s ongoing mission to seek justice for victims and end these human rights violations once and for all.
