Millions of lives were lost because hatred was allowed to grow unchecked. Survivors remind us why remembering matters. On this day, we honor the victims and promise to stand against hatred, discrimination, and violence everywhere.

In many villages, families still rely on dangerous fuels that harm their health. When clean energy arrives, children breathe better and communities grow stronger. On this day, we call for clean energy that protects people and the planet.

In conflict zones, children often study in tents or abandoned buildings, holding onto education as their only hope for the future. On the International Day of Education, we stand for every childโs right to learn safely and freely. Education changes lives and protects futures.

Climate impacts are hitting home. Along with rising food and health costs, the climate crisis is pushing home insurance rates higher. This is a clear warning. We need real climate solutions now.

Three months into the so called ceasefire, Palestinians in Gaza are still suffering. Homes are collapsing, and parents are struggling to keep children warm in tents. The crisis continues and the world must not stay silent.

Access to the internet is essential for protecting human rights. During protests, internet shutdowns stop people from finding safe routes, reaching emergency help, and sharing critical information. Cutting communication puts lives at risk and silences voices when they need to be heard most.

With 2024 and 2025 among Australiaโs hottest years on record, nature is sending a clear warning. It is time to put real climate action first.

Resilience helps people and nature recover after crises. It is the forest growing back after fire, reefs surviving bleaching, crops enduring drought, and countries standing together in solidarity. Resilience gives hope for a stronger future.

The International Court of Justice will soon begin hearings in an important genocide case against Myanmar. While Rohingya communities continue to suffer serious abuses, the world must stay firm in seeking justice and ending impunity. Accountability is essential for dignity.

Borders are more than lines on a map. They are shaped by power and inequality. Systemic racism deeply influences todayโs migration and asylum systems, deciding who is welcomed and who is denied safety and dignity. This injustice must be challenged.

Now is the time to stand up against oppression, lies, and violence. When people choose truth and fairness, real change becomes possible.
With courage and unity, we can protect dignity, defend rights, and build a more just world for everyone. Every voice matters.
As we welcome the new year, we stand with hope and determination. AWB remains committed to defending human rights, protecting dignity, and amplifying silenced voices. May this year bring justice, solidarity, and real change for all.

When war breaks families, when storms destroy homes, it is people not politics that help each other survive. Solidarity means recognizing that our struggles are connected. Today, we stand with every community fighting for justice, safety and equality.
#HumanSolidarityDay
Gender based violence is a national crisis in South Africa. Women For Change sparked a national conversation through courage, protest, and survivor voices, leading to GBV being declared a national disaster in 2025. The fight is not over.

Migrants leave home because they have no choice. Many risk their lives and still face detention, abuse, and discrimination. Behind every journey is a family and a dream. We call for safety, dignity, and respect for all people on the move.
#MigrantsDay
Art is not just expression. It is resistance. At the Global Artivism Convening, artists used film, writing, and storytelling to challenge injustice and protect history. Resistance is writing. Resistance is film. Resistance is showing up.

Gender based violence is rising in Argentina. New legislators taking office on December 10 have a chance to strengthen protections and prevent more harm. Action is urgently needed.
#WomenRights
The Cuban government must stop targeting women human rights defenders, journalists and activists. This institutional gender based violence must be exposed and condemned. Women deserve safety and respect.
#WomenRights
We send our condolences to the families of the residents, workers and firefighters who lost their lives in the Tai Po fire, and we hope all injured people recover soon. Hong Kong authorities should carry out a transparent investigation.

The Cambodian government is not giving enough help to the hundreds of thousands of migrant workers who have returned from Thailand after the recent tensions. Many families came back with no money, no jobs and no support. They deserve safety, assistance and respect, not neglect.
#HumanRights
Every person deserves safety, dignity and freedom but in Gaza, Sudan, Myanmar and many other places, people are being denied even the right to live. Today is not a celebration, but a reminder of the work still left to do. Human rights belong to all of us, not just to those with power.
#HumanRights
Corruption takes medicine from hospitals and futures from children. In many places, families must pay bribes for basic services. When leaders misuse power, ordinary people suffer. Today, we call for transparency and accountability.

We need minerals for phones and clean energy, but people and the environment should not pay the price. Governments must protect communities, enforce safe working conditions and ensure responsibleย mining.

#ProtectOurPlanet
Volunteers are the first to help and the last to leave. From Sudan to the Philippines, their courage supports people when systems fail. Today, we honour everyone who chose compassion over comfort.
