The activist who is done with their vote being worth nothing because there are no fair elections. Courageous people who take great personal risks by defying power. Those who fight against inequality in the world. Against the politics of stagnation and exploitation. For solidarity, democracy and human rights.<\/p><p>We strive for a world where the democratic rights of all people are guaranteed. We fan the flames of change by giving activists practical tools they can use directly in their struggles. We support changemakers around the world and give them a platform. We also emphatically take our own responsibility for fair politics in the Netherlands, the European Union, Africa and the Middle East. We involve as many different people as possible by sharing knowledge and stimulating dialogue - this is how we make people stronger and politics fairer.
