SWEDO stands firmly in support of press freedom worldwide.

A free, independent and pluralistic media is essential for democracy, accountability and the protection of human rights. Journalists must be able to work safely, without fear of censorship, intimidation or violence.

SWEDO work to empower young people through education in communication and responsible use of social media, strengthening their ability to engage in open and informed dialogue.

On this day, we reaffirm our commitment to defending freedom of expression and supporting those who speak truth to power, often at great personal risk.

Press freedom is not a privilege, it is a fundamental right.

I Libanon tvingas familjer som redan flytt från krig att fly igen.
Barn växer upp utan trygghet. Föräldrar gör allt de kan för att skydda sina familjer utan att veta var de ska sova nästa natt.

SWEDO finns på plats och samarbetar med Green Crescent Society, direkt med flyktingar och utsatta grupper.

Din gåva gör konkret skillnad:
💛 100 kr kan bidra till barns aktiviteter
💛 250 kr kan bidra till en trygg plats och stöd till en familj
💛 Varje bidrag hjälper oss nå fler

SWEDO strengthening Vulnerable Women in the Middle East

SWEDO works with locally rooted civil society partners in Palestine, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria and Iraq to support women facing vulnerability due to conflict, displacement, poverty or gender based violence.

We focus on the protection and prevention of gender based and domestic violence, psychosocial support and trauma informed approaches. We promote access to education and vocational pathways, economic empowerment and rights based participation and community leadership.

By combining protection, social inclusion and economic integration, we address both immediate needs and structural barriers affecting women and girls.

We believe in sustainable change driven by local actors, supported by strategic partnerships and accountable funding.
