Educational Delegations
Rights Action leads educational delegations of North Americans to Honduras and Guatemala, during which we visit our partner groups in their home communities, where they suffer and resist the harms and violations.
Our north-south education and activism work is based on the understanding that the U.S. and Canada – governments, corporations and investors; as well as institutions such as the World Bank and IMF - help cause and benefit from the chronic human rights violations and environmental harms, repression and corruption that our partner groups suffer from and resist.
The main focus of these trips is to understand that ‘we’ – from the global north – do not come to help Hondurans and Guatemala with ‘their’ problems, but to understand how U.S., Canadian and “international community” policies and actions contribute to their harms and violations, that these are ‘our’ problems, and we must work together, north and south, to achieve justice and reparations and full respect for human rights.
