01Who we are
An international non-profit for freedom, human rights and democracy.
Promote Freedom Foundation was founded by international lawyer Marta Barandiy and works from offices in Brussels and Los Angeles. We stand with societies living under pressure — places facing war, conflict or political repression, especially where authoritarian regimes threaten people’s rights.
What we do: we support the people and organisations who defend human rights with what they need most — funding, training and partnerships. We work with grassroots groups and civil society, because lasting change starts close to home. Censors delete words and noise drowns them out; we help keep them heard.
If people understand the power of freedom, they will want to protect it. That idea is behind everything on this site.
