ARTICLE 19’s new report, Thailand: Denying the demand for democracy is one of a series of research reports from our #FreeToProtest global campaign, which seeks to protect and advance people’s right to protest, in line with ARTICLE 19’s Principles on the protection of human rights in protests. This report examines how, since the beginning of 2020, youth-led pro-democracy protests have sprung up across Thailand – only to be met with varying degrees of control and suppression on the part of the Thai authorities, including discriminatory practices.
