Rigardu

Rigardu e.V. is a non-profit organization that has been committed since 2015 to the rights of refugees and to a societal transformation based on universal human rights.

• Political Education Work: Rigardu offers workshops, project days, and lectures for young people and adults to spark interest in socially relevant topics. These offerings are designed to be interactive and adapt to the needs of school classes and other groups[1][3].
• Documentation of Human Rights Violations: As part of the Border Violence Monitoring Network (BVMN), Rigardu documents human rights violations in Europe, particularly violence against refugees and illegal collective expulsions. These reports are published in a database to raise awareness of the grievances and strengthen the rights of those affected[1].

The main mission of Rigardu is to contribute to a society that respects universal human rights through political education work and the documentation of human rights violations. The organization advocates for tolerance, democratic thinking, and ecological awareness, and works to reduce prejudices[1][3].

• Human Rights and Asylum: Rigardu is actively engaged in advocating for the rights of refugees and opposes human rights violations to ensure that the relevant actors stop the violence against refugees and recognize their rights to protection and asylum[1].
• Ecological Awareness: Although Rigardu's focus is primarily on human rights, ecological awareness is an integral part of their educational work. They promote interactive methods to address socially relevant topics, including ecological aspects[1][3].

Rigardu is a group of young people who are collectively committed to socially relevant issues. The organization has about 15 active members who engage in project planning and organizational work, and is supported by approximately 60 supporting members. Through active public relations and collaboration with other organizations, Rigardu aims to bring about positive social change[1].
