On the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration Human Rights, we should celebrate - not because of those who wrote it - but because of all those who have disrupted history with it. We need a UDHR for the next century of rights. Join us: amn.st/6014RKLd6
Congratulations @wbaidlaw for winning @TheComNetwork's #JonesAward for #Comms4Good. Very impressed with how you target key audiences via synchronized legal, advocacy, & comms strategies to protect whistleblowers speaking truth to power. Impressive.

Only 3% of the world’s population has access to open #CivicSpace. Without it, people don’t have a voice in decisions that affect them.
Introducing #WeavingResilience, our new initiative that will strengthen civil society across the Global South to protect civic space.

In @NYTOpinion, I argue the consequences of climate change, the next pandemic, or the next recession will require us to reform our international rules-based order to repair historic wrongs and seize new opportunities for progress. fordf.org/UNGA

Our sense of who we are, our very identity as Americans, feels assaulted and violated this Independence Day.
What we do now matters—urgently.
And that American identity we still share matters, too, Ford’s @DarrenWalker says in the @NYTimes.

.@POTUS Joe Biden’s Summit for Democracy presents an important opportunity for leaders to recommit to fundamental rights, note @mbachelet, @darrenwalker, and @malloch_brown. But they must also be prepared to translate rhetoric into action. bit.ly/3Dyhquf
