Our strategy, supporters and annual reports
Minority Rights Group is the leading global organization working for and with ethnic, religious and linguistic minorities, and indigenous peoples worldwide.
For over 50 years, we have campaigned alongside these communities to achieve more equitable, inclusive and peaceful societies. This work has been made possible by our supporters all over the world and our impact can be seen clearly in our reports and independent evaluations.
Today, human rights organizations like ours have been forced into defending spaces that are under attack due to the rise of populism. We will not rest while these attacks continue. We dare to believe that the world can be a different and better place for minority and indigenous communities.
We are committed to combatting persecution, challenging marginalization and realizing climate justice. Our ambitious strategy outlines our plans to make a difference to the lives of minority and indigenous community members around the world.
