What we do
To this end we are running public campaigns for policy change, lobbying governments and international bodies and taking cases to court.
Migrations
We promote narrative change on the issue of migration and advocate for the dignity and rights of people on the move through initiatives such as our Open Migration and Black Holes projects
Equality and anti-discrimination
We want to overcome discrimination, exclusion and violence. We do this through public campaigns, cultural and outreach initiatives.
Civil liberties in the digital age
We work to ensure that technological development does not become a tool through which to threaten the freedom of citizens.
Civic participation
We work to create an increasingly open society and amplify the voices of more groups in society by training emerging leaders
Rule of law
We monitor the civic space and rights in Italy and promote actions to defend them from any attempt to restrict civic space
