On International Human Rights Day, Open Society reaffirmed our commitment as the world’s largest private funder of rights, equity, and justice.
Amid rapidly evolving challenges and increasing threats to the values we uphold, Open Society made an array of multiyear commitments in 2024 to support human rights actors at all levels—from community-based activists to national, regional, and international human rights groups.
You can read more about these commitments here. ([link removed])
Across the world, we are seeing inspiring and powerful movements working to shape a future framed by human rights. Standing with them as allies, we will deepen, broaden, reimagine, and catalyze efforts to advance a new vision of human rights that is not bounded by historic double standards, exclusions, and inequities.
Yours,
Binaifer Nowrojee
President, Open Society Foundations

Our Sharan Srinivas writes on a new approach to support people who courageously speak out against human rights abuses.
