Global Voices

GV is an online, community-based media initiative, working to build understanding across communities.

Global Voices is an international, multilingual, primarily volunteer community of writers, translators, academics, and human rights activists. Together we build understanding across communities, nations, and languages, using the power of our network to connect people with a diversity of perspectives and experiences. How do we do this?

- Global Voices Lingua
With over 50 language communities, our Lingua volunteers make our stories available in dozens of languages to ensure that language is not a barrier to understanding.

- Advox
Our Advox team advocates for free speech online, paying special attention to legal, technical, and physical threats to people using the internet to speak out in the public interest.

- Rising Voices
Rising Voices provides training and mentorship to local underrepresented communities who want to tell their own stories using participatory media tools.
