Member Spotlight

While many international organizations dip in and out of countries and communities in need - imposing a “one size fits all” approach to human rights abuses, the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience is grounded in the belief that if true change is going to come to a conflict torn area, it must come from the bottom up.

Our members - numbering over 300 in 65 countries - know their communities best. Our mission is to empower them - through grants, training, and connecting them to national and international truth and justice processes - to make the change their communities need. Only when communities own their stories and avenues for change can true peace take hold. Here are a few examples of the exceptional work our members are doing for women in their communities.
