    What differentiates us from other human rights organizations is our singular focus on authoritarian regimes.

    We consider our mission essential given that today more than 5.7 billion people live under tyranny. That’s 72% of the world’s population in 94 countries from Cuba to Russia to Saudi Arabia to North Korea.

    Join us in helping save lives and stand up to tyranny.
