Our Mission & Vision
Samvaad Rights Foundation is deeply committed to safeguarding the fundamental rights of journalists, human rights defenders, and ordinary citizens across India. We operate with the conviction that a free, independent press and robust protection for human rights are not just ideals, but the indispensable cornerstones of a thriving, accountable democracy. In a landscape where these rights are increasingly challenged, our work provides a crucial line of defense. Our mission is to empower those who face threats for exercising their constitutional rights, offering them the support, knowledge, and legal recourse they need. We actively monitor the environment, documenting violations with meticulous detail to hold perpetrators accountable and inform the public and international community. Through strategic advocacy, we strive to influence policy and legal frameworks, pushing for reforms that strengthen protections for freedom of expression and assembly. Our vision is an India where the truth can be reported without fear of retaliation, where the media can operate independently without undue pressure, and where justice prevails for all individuals, irrespective of their background or beliefs. We envision a society where dialogue is open, rights are respected, and every voice has the opportunity to be heard and protected. This vision drives every initiative we undertake, from providing urgent legal aid to organizing grassroots human rights education programs.
