"Together we bring a change"

My goal is to create a space where individuals from all walks of life can come together to learn, share ideas, and take action to protect and promote human rights in Horn Africa, particularly in Eritrea. I believe that every person has the right to live with dignity and respect and that it's our responsibility to stand up for those whose rights are being violated. I hope that more people will start to empathize with the pain of those whose rights are violated and who struggle to carry out their daily activities in Eritrea and the wider region.

Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination.
