Human rights activism: super big or super small or what strategy in times of aggressive populism and post-democracy
Attacks on human rights activists are frontal, powerful, and effective. The weakening and marginalisation of human rights activism follow two paths. The strategy of resilience and vitality of civil activism is moving in two opposing directions – super big (protests) and super small (volunteering and civic activism). New generations of students, intellectuals, and activists recognise the challenges facing democracy, freedoms, and rights but are determined to change the world.
