On October 21, 2020, MADRE co-hosted a panel event on accountability for racial and gender-based persecution committed against Afro-descendant communities during Colombia's conflict.

Let’s ensure the most marginalized communities have what they need during the pandemic.

In previous years, MADRE worked closely with our partners to bring their voices to these important climate policymaking spaces. This year, we continued our commitment to ensure an opportunity for Indigenous women leaders to share their voices, leadership and expertise.

MADRE is making emergency grants to grassroots organizations in Syria and across the region that are mobilizing urgently to meet people’s needs.

This exchange is one of many to bring women leaders from all over the world together in one space to learn from each other, strategize and build collective power.

For the past 15 months, Tulia Maris Valencia and Sara Quiñonez — mother and daughter, and Afro-Colombian human rights defenders — were unjustly detained in a maximum-security prison, in retaliation for raising their voice on behalf of their community.https://www.madre.org/press-publications/your-support-action/action-alert-free-sara-and-tulia

With your help, MADRE has achieved a historic victory – an important step in the ability of international law to protect all victims of atrocities.

When we honor Earth Day, it’s about much more than the ground beneath your feet. It’s the food that nourishes us, the water that sustains us, the air that flows through us. It’s about the deep and intricate connections between all beings, and our responsibility to live in balance with each other and the Earth.

MADRE has given seed grants to budding organizations in the Philippines, Uganda, and Tanzania to support Indigenous and women's rights. Read on to see what your support has made possible.
