"Thank you to the School team and all the lecturers! At this stage in my life, the course helped me move from stagnation to a desire to grow and enjoy learning again. It was a huge support and a driving force for me. It even helped me find new job opportunities, organize letter-writing to political prisoners, and not feel so alone in my struggles."
- Afi, Inernational Red Cross, Zurich, Switzerland
"A huge thank you to the School for officially allowing me to dream! That one lecture on pre-trial detention centers — it might have seemed like just a lecture, but for me, it was transformative! The School is amazing; every class was fantastic. I truly felt like I was reborn as a better version of myself!"
- Yulia, Activist, Istanbul, Turkey
"The lectures on international law were the most memorable — the cases were so interesting. I also appreciated the variety of lecturers from leading human rights initiatives, especially Nasiliyu.Net (NGO that supports victims of domestic violence in Russia). I learned about many volunteer projects, including support groups for political prisoners, and the participants did an incredible job."
- Anastasia, Activist, Russia
