The forgotten minorities
Amplifying the voices of stateless peoples and marginalized communities who lack representation on the world stage.

In our world, hundreds of peoples have no state of their own.
Two ongoing genocides — in Darfur and in Xinjiang — are unfolding right now.
In around a dozen countries, homosexuality is punishable by death; in roughly sixty more, it is a crime.
In over a dozen countries, a woman who reports rape can be prosecuted herself.
Yet the organisations created to address these problems have been compromised. At the UN, oppressors sit on the bodies meant to judge oppression while the oppressed are invisible. Within major non-profits, persecution is increasingly excused as cultural difference.
This is why Libera Mondo exists.
We are here for the stateless, the invisible, the silenced. We are here for Kurds and Tibetans, for Amazigh and Druze, for Baha'i and Baluchi, for Darfuri and Yazidi. We are here for women living under legal systems that deny them basic rights. For the sexual minorities persecuted by the governments meant to protect them.
Because freedom and dignity should not be a question of political interest or cultural sensitivity. Because attention follows power. The minorities with large nations behind them fill the streets; those with no one behind them are left to silence.
