Our Mission The mission of Rights in Russia is to provide information about human rights in Russia and to support the work of human rights organizations based in the Russian Federation.We believe the voices of Russia's human rights defenders should be more widely heard internationally, both by civil society and by governments. We wish to address a continuing shortage of accurate information in English about human rights in Russia. And we want to offer our support and solidarity to Russia's human rights defenders at a time when the Russian government's indifference and hostility often places their work and their lives in jeopardy. In pursuit of our objectives, at present we publish news, views and analysis about human rights in Russia, including translations of articles by Russian human rights defenders, and articles by experts living outside Russia. Readers can subscribe to our publications by e-mail, and we provide links to them on Facebook and Twitter,As we work to reach a wider audience, to increase our output of quality translations, and to bring a wider range of authors to public attention, we need to raise significantly the level of our funding – and this is the next goal in our development.
