We have been working on this tremendous great project for the last five months and finally the day of launch have arrived.
Together with the human rights NGO – The IRCT (International Rehabilitation Council for Torture Victims), we have developed a new identity to support and bring awareness towards an extremely important cause all powered by people through the use of social media.
The aim is to build a global proactive community, a movement of people that shares the same vision – a dream of a World Without Torture.
Who is the IRCT?
The IRCT is an umbrella for more than 140 independent torture rehabilitation organisations in more than 70 countries. Each year, this entails treatment of more than 100,000 torture survivors and their families.
Social media for social good
At Mindjumpers we believe that social media can make meaningful dents in the universe, that social media can be used to do social good and that we as ordinary people on this Earth want to do good things and help each other, this is a chance to support that belief.
We have launched the World Without Torture on Facebook and Twitter to begin with. Some might say: “Why not on … and on…” ? Well, resources are the key! Instead of spreading limited resources, we have put it all into two of the worlds largest online social platforms – hoping to get your help to build a strong global movement and from there expand it – with the aim of showing support to the victims of torture, the people fighting against torture and the enormous amount of people on a global scale touched by torture.
