Strength and Solidarity + Organizational health
Strength and Solidarity
The Symposium on Strength and Solidarity for Human Rights is a multi-year project to provoke new efforts and energy for building organizational strength and increased solidarity across the human rights field. It seeks to be a source of ideas and provocation within the global human rights movement. From now until 2025, they’ve convened frontline activists, organizational leaders, scholars, and movement builders in conversations about the challenges rights defenders face.
