About Global Voices
Global Voices is a vibrant international community of writers, translators, and activists who are dedicated to amplifying the voices of marginalized communities around the world. Founded in 2005, the organization aims to promote understanding and dialogue across cultures by providing a platform for citizen media and grassroots journalism.
With a focus on underrepresented perspectives, Global Voices curates and translates content from various languages, ensuring that important stories reach a global audience. The organization believes in the power of storytelling to foster empathy and drive social change.
Global Voices operates through a network of local contributors who share their insights and experiences, covering topics such as human rights, environmental issues, and social justice. This collaborative approach not only enriches the content but also empowers local voices to be heard on a larger stage.
The organization is committed to transparency and inclusivity, actively engaging with its community to ensure diverse representation in its narratives. Through workshops, training sessions, and partnerships, Global Voices supports aspiring journalists and advocates, equipping them with the skills needed to tell their stories effectively.
In addition to its online presence, Global Voices participates in various global forums and events, advocating for freedom of expression and digital rights. The organization’s vision is to create a more equitable world where everyone has the opportunity to share their story and contribute to the global conversation.
As a non-profit entity, Global Voices relies on donations and grants to sustain its operations, allowing it to remain independent and focused on its mission. With a growing team of passionate individuals, Global Voices continues to expand its reach and impact, striving to make the world a more connected and understanding place.
