Be a part of the change.
Support our campaigns to make a difference.

Around the world today, we are experiencing some of the biggest setbacks to democracy and human rights in decades.

Acting in solidarity is now more important than ever.

We are many, and when working together, we are powerful. We believe that another world is possible. When we come stand with each other, it gives us the courage to strive for as long as it takes to make that better world a reality.

Our collective resilience and diverse partnerships have proven that we can succeed. We can confront the modern challenges to realize democracy, inclusion, and open civic spaces.

Whether you campaign online or in your local community, your actions make a difference. Together, we can create a future that is more just, inclusive, and equitable.

Stand As My Witness

For many human rights defenders, standing up for justice and equality is a courageous act of defiance against powerful interests. Yet their voices are often silenced, and their lives, wellbeing, freedom, and dignity are at grave risk.

Stand As My Witness campaign calls for the release of imprisoned activists. We celebrate their bravery and passion for doing what’s right. We highlight their struggles and campaign to achieve their freedom and safety.
