MAKING URGENT SOCIAL ISSUES VISIBLE NOW 

About us

The URGENT Foundation is a non-profit organisation based in Amsterdam that engages in multidisciplinary projects in support of activists across the globe.  

We are dedicated to providing comprehensive support through networking, advocacy, public programmes and education. By amplifying the voices of those whose human rights are not upheld in their home countries, we champion freedom of speech, representative democracies, and civil rights protection.

Our mission

Supporting Activists, HRDs and Artists 

Through the coordination of the temporary relocation program for activists, the Shelter City Amsterdam Programme and the International Cities of Refuge Network (ICORN) offers shelter to persecuted artists.

Organising Public Programmes and Creating Networks

We organise public programmes like  The Dissident and the Human Rights Festival that strive to serve as a platform that fosters discussions on a wide range of social issues and human rights, making them accessible to a wider audience. 

Multimedia Productions

By executing multimedia projects like World Talks, which is an international HRDs database compiling interview documentaries. We also produce public discussion events on various socially relevant topics and human rights issues. Additionally, we develop creative projects such as photo exhibitions and podcasts.
