Break the Chains
from Rights & Wrongs
They’re chained to trees. Locked in sheds. Confined and forgotten — because they have a mental health condition. Across the globe, people with mental health conditions are shackled — hidden away, dehumanized, and neglected in overcrowded, filthy rooms, sheds, cages, even animal shelters. This week, host Ngofeen Mputubwele talks to Human Rights Watch researchers who are fighting to end this cruel practice — and to survivors who show that with the right support, healing and dignity are possible. Elizabeth Kamundia: Director,Disability Rights Division at Human Rights Watch Kriti Sharma: Associate Director, Disability Rights Division
