Boycott the UAE #DictatorExpo

Governments, businesses, and VIPs attending the UAE Dubai Expo

Boycott the #DictatorExpo:

Urge governments, businesses, and celebrities to boycott the UAE Dubai Expo and demand human rights reforms from UAE's dictatorship.

The rulers of Dubai and the United Arab Emirates use their brand of luxury to hide their vast human rights crimes. While the world focuses on Dubai's giant skyscrapers, the UAE monarchy has:

  • Kidnapped and disappeared adult princesses who have tried to flee.
  • Bombed and killed thousands in Yemen.
  • Imprisoned critics at home.
  • Violated women's rights.
  • Enabled abuse of thousands of migrant workers.
  • Blocked democracy and backed dictators across the Middle East.

Now the UAE dictatorship is hosting its latest propaganda event -- the UAE Dubai Expo.  Or as we call it, the #DictatorExpo.

From October 2021 to March 2022, the UAE monarchy will host a glamorous global event and promote itself to the world with a flood of propaganda. Meanwhile, the UAE's human rights violations continue. Even the head of the UAE Dubai Expo himself has been accused of sexual assault.

Sign this petition and urge politicians, diplomats, corporate executives, and celebrities to boycott the #DictatorExpo and stop supporting the UAE dictatorship.
