The event is being hosted by students taking part in the HRLC’s Scholars at Risk advocacy programme. They are advocating for the release of Dr Abduljalil Al-Singace, Bahraini activist and retired professor of mechanical engineering who has been imprisoned since March 2011 for participating in a pro-democracy protest. The students have organised this event in his honour and in solidarity with all detained human rights defenders and pro-democracy activists in Bahrain.
