As the growing global revolution shows, our governments are failing to serve their people. We must therefore act collectively to change and share our futures. The fundamental importance of human rights knows no borders, abuses of power can be kept in check wherever people decide to take a stand. In speaking to each other, in working together and for each other, we recognize that our goals are shared: we seek local justice for ourselves, global justice for all and the two are inextricably bound.
