Casti HRW Club’s mission is to work closely with the Human Rights Watch organization to educate the Castilleja community about global human rights abuses, identify those in a position to address those abuses, and therefore affect change.  We see a need for more fact-based awareness of human rights violations, and we see potential to have impact not just through fundraising but through political advocacy, such as letter-writing, petitions, or appealing to our elected officials.  Our ACE org would replicate the powerful action model of Human Rights Watch:  “Investigate, Expose, and Change.”

​

As an Ace Org, we will strive to educate our members about injustices in the world today, utilizing HRW as a resource and a backbone. Then, with this information, we will advocate for change by reaching the highest levels of power and by committing to hands on projects that will directly benefit the victims of suffering.
