Ashoka: Human Rights
The principles of human rights address the global struggles for equity, liberty, and justice. Pursuing their application is often a harrowing, even, daring feat on the part of human rights defenders. Dedicated to tackling the root causes for injustice, many of these individuals have witnessed violations first hand. Ashoka supports their innovative ideas for securing human rights for all peoples around the globe. Ashoka Fellows are pursuing initiatives that secure both civil and political rights-freedom of expression, due process, political representation-and economic, social, and cultural rights-health, food, housing, employment.
