Digital town hall | The Struggle for Freedom

A word on our digital town hall from NOW!'s co-founders and co-Executive Directors, AndreaColombe:

Dear Friends,

We wanted to personally thank you for registering for our third digital town hall: "The struggle for freedom, a talk with Joshua Wong". I hope that just like us you left the webinar more inspired than ever.

When it comes to standing against authoritarian governments, the world has definitely a lot to learn from activists like Joshua, who has led the pro-democracy struggle in Hong Kong for almost a decade. In those uncertain times brought by the pandemic, he told us that we can still all have a role in the fight: “I call upon the world to keep an eye on Beijing's suppression. We can all step up for Hong Kong right now”

 

We are incredibly thrilled to see that change-makers like Joshua are leading the way on this fundamental issue. At NOW!, we believe that great conversations like these should be followed by meaningful actions. Hence, we will work to prepare a campaign to defend democracy worldwide: do you want to help out? Become a member today!

Looking forward to continuing this adventure with you all.

Best,

Andrea & Colombe
