to present and memory to action is the hallmark of the Sites of Conscience movement. As a network of more than 250 Sites of Conscience in 65 countries, we engage tens of millions of people every year in using the lessons of history to take action on challenges
to democracy and human rights today. Through powerful participatory programs that bring people together across difference, we advocate for every community’s right to preserve places where struggles for human rights and democracy have occurred, to talk openly
about what happened there, and to harness the strengths of memory, heritage, arts and culture to build ethical societies that envision and shape a more just and humane future.<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
