Here are the inspirational stories of seventy-two recipients, all under thirty years of age, of the Reebok Human Rights Award. These young men and women were poets, bakers, doctors, veterinary students, lawyers, monks—even children—when they became inspired to take risks to protect their fellow human beings. Their stories kindle hope, courage, and determination in our collective battle against acts of inhumanity.

“We can’t promise those suffering from injustice that we can always win the battle, but we can promise them that they won’t be fighting alone,” says one of these human rights defenders, illustrating the spirit of compassion that characterizes all those profiled in this book.

This unique compilation of personal stories offers much-needed attention to their work on the frontlines of human rights and to the very real continuing problems they and their countries face.
