Speak truth to power(sttp): at rkfhr, we understand the imminent need to provide transformative and systematic human rights education to prevent violations from occurring. Aligned with the principles of the declaration of human rights education and training, speak truth to power (sttp), is: 1) about human rights, which includes providing knowledge of the human rights framework and the mechanisms for its protection; 2) through human rights, which includes learning and teaching in a way that respects the rights of educators and students; and 3) for human rights, which includes empowering students to recognize and protect their rights and those of others. Under this framework and through storytelling, sttp constructs a world in which human rights education is ingrained into the fabric of all educators' pedagogy, and where young people have the effective mindsets, attitudes, and behaviors to defend and advance human rights as the next generation of human rights defenders. Sttp seeks educational partners such as teachers organizations and unions, school districts, foundations and education officials to bring the educator training and educational resources to more students. It is continually expanding its reach in the us and abroad. Current domestic programming occurs in new york city, washington d.c., philadelphia, connecticut, memphis, san diego, indianapolis, los angeles, austin, and chicago. Our current global work includes spain, uk, switzerland, greece, italy, sweden, denmark, sarajevo, and mexico.
