Our community
Significant change cannot be achieved in a vacuum or alone.
Relationships and partnerships are at the core of GI-ESCR’s internal strategy.
By cultivating solidarity and equitable partnerships, we promote collaboration and initiatives to establish and realise human rights that are grounded in diverse perspectives.
We operate across disciplinary silos and national frontiers, with institutions at all levels, to build collective capacity to identify and reduce inequalities and bridge the gender gap. We work closely with social movements because social movements engage society at large, not merely intellectual and political elites. This is the terrain in which GI-ESCR has chosen to work.
