Community-Driven
Each year our members set our overall priorities through all-member polls. And every campaign we run is supported by our members - so the campaigns that go big are the ones our community has already chosen.
About us
Millions of people. One shared future. The power to build it.
Who we are
Avaaz means "voice" in many of the world's languages. We launched in 2007 with a democratic mission: to close the gap between the world we have and the world most people everywhere want.
We are a global community of millions, organising across borders to build a better future. We defend democracy, stand with civilians in conflict, protect the living Earth, and shape how powerful new technologies are governed. When a moment arrives where public pressure can tip a decision, we move together fast, and at scale.
We work in 17 languages, on six continents, funded entirely by our members. No government backs us. No corporation owns us. That independence is what lets us take bold stands, and see them all the way through.

Our values
What We Believe
Five values guide every campaign we take on.
- 01
Independence
We answer only to our members. We take no money from governments or corporations, so our choices are always guided by our mission and our community.
- 02
Courage
We take bold, values-driven stands, even when they're hard. People and planet demand nothing less.
- 03
Interconnection
We recognise the shared humanity of all people, and our interdependence with the living world we're part of.
- 04
Community
Our strength is millions of ordinary people acting together. Avaaz is where people gather, mobilise, and demand change in one voice.
- 05
Diversity
We cross borders, languages, and cultures to fight for justice, dignity, and democracy everywhere. Our power comes from the range of experience and perspective united in one movement for change.
The Avaaz way
How We Work
Avaaz's work is done by a community-backed global team, free to act on any issue, anywhere, anytime. A megaphone for new causes, a fire truck for emergencies, and a rapid-response force that can put hundreds of thousands of people behind a cause, or raise millions of dollars, within days.
Rapid Response
Our staff don't set an agenda and sell it to members. It's the opposite: we listen, then propose action. When members decide to act, our team carries the campaign through, with petitions, ads, legal challenges, whatever it takes.
Global Reach
In the life of any cause, a moment arrives when a decision can be tipped. Avaaz is built to meet that moment, and where it doesn't yet exist, to create it.
Independent
We're 100% member-funded, and every financial report since 2006 is public. No major donors, no foundations, no special interests. Democratic accountability is in our DNA.
Transparency
Funded by members. Accountable to you.
