Democracy brought with it new objectives that have also shaped what we are today: an organization that fights for rights and equality. To this end, we deploy the strategies of the human rights movement, none of which works in a vacuum: any successes we have had in meeting our goals are thanks to our alliances with activists, political collectives, organizations and movements, in Argentina and around the world.

Strategic Goals and Lines of Action:

Our priorities for the next three years include strategies of local, regional or international scale in key areas for expanding access to a decent and fair life and for resisting limitations on rights and liberties.

With these initiatives, we aim to:

• Characterize, lend visibility to and denounce forms of oppression and authoritarianism stemming from ways the system of production and accumulation, patriarchy and racism intersect to adversely affect the lives of millions of people, their territories and the environment in Latin America. Our horizon is to promote the construction of an egalitarian system with social and environmental justice, founded on broad agreements and positioning collective and communal values over individualism. 

• Be an active part of social movements that seek to raise awareness, denounce, resist and mobilize in transnational and transgenerational alliances.

• Advocate before State and supranational institutions, which we see as platforms for discussion and debate of disputes rather than forums with the capacity to change reality on their own. The horizon is about orienting these institutions’ actions toward the protection and expansion of rights and contributing to the development of their technical and political capacities to intervene in the structural conditions that produce social and environmental injustices.

Our priority areas of intervention to achieve these goals are: 

• The consequences of the concentration of wealth on the quality of life of the majority of the population and on the environmental sustainability of development

• Full access to the rights to comprehensive health, migration, gender identity, access to justice and decent housing.

• The expansion of systems of security, prisons, intelligence, and criminal justice and their functioning as spaces of State authoritarianism, their levels of racism and racial and social profiling.

• The phenomena related to public-private violence, including violence produced by the dynamics of the drug trade.

• The processes of memory, truth and justice, simultaneous to or following massive human rights violations.

• The phenomena associated with the rise of ultra-right groups, their political and institutional involvement and their capacity to shape political life and entrench themselves socially through rhetoric that is averse to democracy, equality and human rights. 

• The promotion of social and political organization, of actions that foster a public, collective and communal perspective over individualism, and the defense of the full exercise of the right to protest, freedom of expression and to petition the authorities.
