The Advocacy Project works to strengthen the capacity of human rights organizations to produce, use and disseminate their information effectively.

The Advocacy Project supports partners who work for social justice and human rights at the community level. AP does this by:-
* Highlighting human rights abuses and concerns on behalf of partners
* Sending interns to work with partners in the popular "Fellows For Peace" program
* Training partners on their information needs
* Carrying out advocacy and outreach campaigns to raise awareness for partners

Please visit our campaign pages to see how you can help support our current programs.
