As events past and present continue to remind us, democracy requires relentless care and attention.

From North America to the Middle East, people in every corner of the world find themselves today in the midst of war or mired in volatile and profoundly polarized settings, where democracy and the rule of law are no longer guaranteed.

To counter these forces, the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience (ICSC) is equipping museums, historic sites and communities with the skills they need to combat the historical erasure and exclusion that breeds inequality and cycles of conflict.

But we need your help — more today than yesterday and more in the year ahead than we could have ever imagined. Protect the stories that matter by making a one-time or monthly donation today.
