We partner with organisations that strive to make a difference and provide justice for those having their rights infringed upon. Whether it’s discrimination, a lack of access to basic resources or intense poverty, our partners are fighting to alter the abuse of human rights.
Thousands of citizens in countries throughout the world are being marginalized within their communities, and are provided with a lack of access to basic resources and opportunities that are mandatory as part of their human rights.
Our interns have the ability to gain hands-on experience and work towards improving access to basic services for communities, advocate for change, promote active citizenship, educate people about human rights and strive for social justice for those being taken advantage of.
Advocacy and Campaigns
We offer Advocacy & Campaigns internships with well-established, high-profile nonprofit organisations in New Delhi. In developing countries, it is necessary for government and organisations to take responsibility for guaranteeing equal opportunities to all citizens through social action and social development. Advocacy work plays an integral part in uplifting India and contributes significantly towards improving its social development.
Advocacy is vital for ensuring the equal treatment of people within marginalised communities. Our partner organisations work to defend the rights of people experiencing unfair treatment within society. Unfair treatment can take place in a variety of forms and interns will have the important opportunity to understand and take action surrounding communities’ lack of access to services and opportunities afforded to people as part of their basic human rights.
