A damning United Nations report on human rights violations in the Philippines wasn’t enough for the U.N. to launch an independent probe. So this week, a group of civil society organizations announced they will begin investigating the issue themselves.
Investigate PH, organized by the International Coalition of Human Rights in the Philippines (ICHRP), was formally launched this week and said it would release three reports to be submitted to the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC). The first two reports will be released for upcoming UNHRC sessions in March and July 2021.
The group will also submit findings to the International Criminal Court (ICC). The Philippines withdrew from the ICC in 2019 after it filed complaints against President Rodrigo Duterte, who has since withdrawn the country from the court and threatened ICC chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda with arrest should she enter the Philippines.

MASON, Ohio â A new development is coming to the corner of Kings Mills Road and Kings Island Drive, but it won t be about fun and games. It will be about saving lives. This is going to be a full-service community hospital, said David Fikse, president of Mercy Health Cincinnati. At the same time, we are part of the Mercy Cincinnati network, and so we re not looking to duplicate every service at every facility. So this is an opportunity for us to treat primary medical needs of this community.
