Norwegian Human Rights Fund

The NHRF team in Oslo kicked off the year at the Nobel Peace Center! 🕊 During our NHRF kick-off, we took the opportunity to discuss predictions for trends in 2025 and how to navigate the human rights sector on global, organizational, and personal levels.✊ We were also deeply inspired by the powerful Nihon Hidankyo exhibition, sharing stories of resilience and the fight for a nuclear-free world. 🌍

The ceasefire in Gaza offers a vital opportunity to reaffirm our collective commitment to human rights. It’s a moment to recognize the immense efforts of human rights defenders who work on the frontlines to protect lives, demand justice, and uphold the dignity of all. Lasting peace can only be achieved when human rights are protected and promoted without exception. Donors and governments should ramp up their support to human rights defenders and human rights organisations who work for a peaceful solution based on human rights and equality for all. ✊🌍 The Human Rights Defenders Fund has posted videos and a report of Palestinian and Israeli human rights defenders, giving insight and voice on their political struggles and the prices they’ve paid. The videos and report can be found here: https://lnkd.in/dv3NhN4e
