We are a courage-powered community for social change.
Join us to celebrate the 2024 Right Livelihood Laureates!
2024 Right Livelihood Laureates empower communities through non-violence and speaking truth to power
With violence raging in all parts of the world, these Laureates show that the way forward is through empowering communities, peace-making and a steadfast commitment to truth.
“For raising Indigenous voices in the face of the global ecological breakdown and her leadership in defending people, lands and culture.”
Joan Carling is a Filipino Indigenous activist who has been defending the rights of Indigenous Peoples for more than 30 years. Her work spans grassroots and international levels, focusing on human rights, sustainable development, climate justice and the fight against land exploitation.
“For their steadfast non-violent resistance to Israel’s illegal occupation, promoting Palestinian civic action through peaceful means.”
Issa Amro is a Palestinian human rights activist who has dedicated his life to peaceful resistance against Israeli occupation in the West Bank city of Hebron. Together with the activist group he founded, Youth Against Settlements, he strives to create a future where Palestinians live freely and with dignity.
“For empowering communities to stand up for their right to say no to exploitative mega-projects and demand environmental justice.”
Anabela Lemos is a Mozambican environmental activist and Director of Justiça Ambiental! (JA!), an organisation committed to fighting corporate-led projects that displace communities, damage livelihoods and intensify climate change in Mozambique.
“For pioneering digital forensic methods to ensure justice and accountability for victims and survivors of human and environmental rights violations.”
Forensic Architecture is a pioneering research agency dedicated to uncovering and documenting the truth about environmental and human rights violations using cutting-edge open-source investigation and digital modelling techniques.
