Are you a youth advocate or a frontline journalist? Do you know someone with the drive and gifts to make a difference?
The HART Prize for Human Rights celebrates diverse voices and perspectives. With your creativity and sensitivity, we want to bring human rights into the light. The competition is free to enter, and runs from March 16th to May 15th.

We are grateful for the generous support of our members, individual donors, and The Puffin Foundation Ltd
The core values of HRE USA and its partner organizations include transparency and critical thinking skills. We believe that human rights--and human rights education--belong to everyone, and that the full realization of human rights means that access to human rights education materials must never be conditioned upon the subscription to any particular religious faith, ideology, political affiliation, or membership in any particular organization and that any organizational connections should be openly acknowledged.
