Indigenously (Your hometown, that river you used to swim in as a kid, the exit of your area interstate — chances are they are all named after or inspired by the Indigenous people who once lived there. In the rarest cases, like in the Dakotas, some of the first inhabitants still hold ground on those ancestral lands. If you’re new to this knowledge, it’s not your fault. In 2015, social scientists studying history standards in American public schools found that nearly all of them — 87 percent—failed to teach students about Indigenous Peoples past the year 1900. It means we’re frozen in the past and made invisible in the present. But we are still here.)

Our work aims to revitalize the Greenwood community and to address the major areas of racial inequality and injustice directly caused by the Massacre: Health, Education, Real Estate, and Business. There is no clearer, no uglier example of racial injustice and anti-Black racial terror (or violence) in America’s history than the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. Just as horrendous as the white mob that attacked and entirely destroyed a peaceful, prosperous Black community in Tulsa, is that America intentionally denied that it happened and covered it up for nearly 100 years. Despite the undisputed facts around the Massacre and the generational damage that it caused, there has not been any constructive, tangible action taken to address and repair the catastrophic harm that it caused. We at Justice for Greenwood are building a movement to change all of that.)

Leadership Center for Democracy and Social Justice (Building Power with a New Generation of Social Justice Leader.

These leaders want to fundamentally understand power: how to build it, how to use it, and how to share it with our communities.)

Madre (Madre focuses on: Gender violence, including physical and sexual abuse, is widely used to intimidate, oppress, silence and subjugate girls, women, disabled and LGBTIQ people across the globe. It devastates those who are targeted and destroys the social fabric of families, communities and societies.In short, gender violence is one of the most significant barriers to women, girls and LGBTIQ people accessing their human rights. Climate change is a global threat, and poor, rural and Indigenous women are hardest hit. They are impacted first and worst by the food shortages, droughts, floods and diseases linked to this growing danger. These women are more than victims. They are sources of solutions, inventing innovative, locally-rooted responses that offer a blueprint for effective, global action. Yet their priorities, experiences and knowledge are notably missing from economic and environmental policymaking spaces. Women are vital defenders of communities in times of war. They mobilize humanitarian aid, health care and shelter. They heal rifts between individuals and communities and address the trauma of war survivors. Despite this essential role, women are often overlooked in peace processes – a missed opportunity to build durable peace. Research has shown that women’s meaningful participation in peace negotiations results in agreements 35% more likely to last at least 15 years.)

Moruroa Files (This editorial project began two years ago in a collaboration between INTERPRT, a collective of researchers, architects and spatial designers who focus on environmental issues, and the investigative, multi-media newsroom Disclose. Our common objective was simple, but had never before been attempted, namely to fill in the missing pages of the history of France’s nuclear weapons tests in Polynesia. For this international investigation, we teamed up with researcher Sébastien Philippe a member of Princeton University’s Science and Global Security programme. His task was to scientifically analyse, one by one, all of the information and data recorded by the French military at the time of the tests. This interactive platform exposes, for the first time ever, the information that has been hidden from public debate by the French authorities for five decades. In this unprecedented investigation, we studied the contents of a mass of documents from the French defence ministry. Classified until 2013, these archives of around 2,000 documents were finally made public as a result of a long legal battle between the French state and the victims of the nuclear tests. Until now, the documents have never been studied in their totality. We reorganised them by date and subject matter and have now filed them into a database that can be accessed by victims of the tests, researchers and the wider public. Along with the study of the documents, we carried out interviews with more than 50 people, including 18 inhabitants of Polynesian atolls, 16 former military personnel, as well as with magistrates, scientists and organisations from civil society in both French Polynesia and mainland France. Using 3D modelling tools and the visualisation of data, we have reproduced, for the first time ever, the events that followed the most contaminating of France’s atmospheric nuclear explosions carried out between 1966 and 1974. We also re-evaluated the extent of the radioactive contaminations these caused, and in which the civilian populations were the principal victims.)

Reaching Critical Will (Reaching Critical Will (RCW) is the disarmament programme of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF), the oldest women's peace organisation in the world. In 1915, women from countries at war with each other and from neutral countries came together in The Hague to discuss solutions to the causes and violence of World War I. They founded WILPF as an organisation with a mandate to challenge militarism, patriarchy, and capitalism as the roots of war and violence. WILPF created RCW in 1999 to lead the organisation’s analysis and advocacy for disarmament, the reduction of global military spending and militarism, and the investigation of gendered aspects of the impact of weapons and of disarmament processes. We seek to achieve disarmament, challenge militarism, and confront violent masculinities and gender discrimination through research, policy analysis, advocacy, monitoring, and reporting on international forums such as the United Nations and other meetings of governments and organisations, and through international civil society networks and campaigns. Our work on disarmament is firmly embedded in an integrated approach to WILPF’s work on militarism, human rights, gender equality and women’s rights, and global economic and environmental justice. We are committed to creating change by altering discourse, promoting new perspectives and approaches, and affecting policy by taking a holistic view of the challenges we face and solutions we can achieve.)

Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (A 30-year-old negative dug out of a Washington attic has fulfilled a Sarajevo siege survivor's dream and reminded the photographer that you never know how important those pictures are. Bosnian Dzemil Hodzic's search through the backwaters of the Internet for wartime memories of his late brother began with a project he started called Sniper Alley in 2019. The website aims to "find, identify, and archive" photos taken in Sarajevo during the war between the years 1992-96. A year later, a coincidental post by an American who, at 21, had faked his journalism credentials to chronicle the Bosnian War led to uncovering the only surviving wartime image of Amel Hodzic.)

Securing Democracy (Democracies around the world are under assault. Authoritarian regimes are using a suite of cheap but effective asymmetric tools to undermine democratic states and institutions.

Negative attitudes are steadily creeping into modern behaviors and language – not just of community or political leaders, but of ordinary, fellow human beings.
