Open Society Foundations

Nonprofit or community organization

Last modified: March 15, 2013, 8:33 PM

Description

The Open Society Foundations work to build vibrant and tolerant societies whose governments are accountable and open to the participation of all people.

We seek to strengthen the rule of law; respect for human rights, minorities, and a diversity of opinions; democratically elected governments; and a civil society that helps keep government power in check.

We help to shape public policies that assure greater fairness in political, legal, and economic systems and safeguard fundamental rights.

We implement initiatives to advance justice, education, public health, and independent media.

We build alliances across borders and continents on issues such as corruption and freedom of information.

Working in every part of the world, the Open Society Foundations place a high priority on protecting and improving the lives of people in marginalized communities.

    The ideas of the proper formation of governments, the role of government, fundamental rights, justice and education are discussed in my book "Human Rights, What Are They Really?" which is described at web site www.truehumanrights.com
