Why the World Can’t Stay Silent on Migrant Abuse in South Africa

Reports from across South Africa reveal a disturbing rise in harassment, discrimination and violent attacks against migrants. While nations must enforce immigration laws, basic human dignity cannot be compromised. As a leading African nation, South Africa has a responsibility to protect vulnerable populations. Regional and global bodies—including the African Union and the United Nations—must engage transparently to uphold human rights standards.

A safer, more respected South Africa benefits the entire continent, and the time for quiet diplomacy has passed.
