Wherever you look, far-right and ultra-conservative movements are gaining strength – and even taking over governments. The backlash against human rights and social justice is alive and kicking across the world, from Poland to Brazil to the US.
Here at openDemocracy, we’re committed to exposing the religious and political movements, dark money and elite networks behind this backlash, and also in documenting resistance to it, in particular from women, LBTIQ groups and feminist media.
We’re now looking to expand our coverage of Belarus, Moldova, Ukraine, Russia, Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan.
