Promotion des droits universels et de la justice

Across the globe, feminists are challenging the agendas of fascist and fundamentalist actors. These oppressive forces target women, persons who are non-conforming in their gender identity, expression and/or sexual orientation, and other oppressed communities.

Overview

Anti-rights forces pose an increasing threat in the halls of power and our communities.

In the face of this, our Advancing Universal Rights and Justice (AURJ) program promotes the universality of rights: the foundational principle that human rights belong to everyone, no matter who they are, without exception. We create space for feminist movements and allies to strategize and take collective action to counter the influence and impact of anti-rights actors. We also seek to advance feminist frameworks, norms and proposals, protecting and promoting the universality of rights and centring the indivisibility of liberatory struggles.

“We believe that all struggles for liberation are interconnected, and we reaffirm the concepts of universality, indivisibility, and interdependence of rights. The realization of the human rights of one group of people does not come at the cost of the rights of any others.”
