Liberation, one of the oldest human
rights organisations, was founded in 1954 as the Movement for
Colonial Freedom. For more than half a century it has campaigned,
along side other anti-imperialist forces, to rid the world of
colonialism. In 1958 its name was changed to Liberation, an organisation
that today opposes neo-colonialism, economic exploitation and
racism.
At Liberation we undertake
research and action centred on the prevention and curtailment
of human rights violations,
across a broad spectrum of countries.
As an international and inter-connecting organisation, Liberation
engages in advocacy work, supporting and standing in solidarity
with other like-minded organisations. Liberation provides a space
and framework to highlight
and discuss issues of concern with the United Nations, the British
Parliament, the International Labour Organisation and Trade Unions.
