Activist profiles
In Celebration of Activists
It is Inter Pares' privilege to work with women and men whose determination and enthusiasm defeat despair to achieve great things and inspire others to action. Over the years we have introduced some of these colleagues and friends to our supporters through our Bulletin. All of these are people who have travelled the dark and dangerous shadows of political resistance, and whose persistent struggles for justice and outspoken defense of the poor justifies the word "hero" in describing them. Yet each and every one of them would protest that they are not heroes, that they are simply human beings who believe that to be human is to struggle to challenge injustice and improve the world.
We present some recent profiles of our colleagues and counterparts in different parts of the world.
