A Voice For the Voiceless

The Advocacy Project helps marginalized communities to tell their story, claim their rights and produce social change. We recruit graduate students to volunteer as Peace Fellows with partners.

The Impact of Service



"I look at myself as having the potential to be as strong and caring as the amazing women I met in Kenya."

Kate Cummings (Tufts University) volunteered in 2009 as a Peace Fellow for Vital Voices in Africa.

Bhola Paswan



Bhola Paswan comes from the Saptari district in the Eastern Teral which is one of the most tumultuous areas of Nepal.

In his community, he has become well respected among both Dalit and non-Dalit communities alike for his professionalism and courage to report the facts in the face of intimidation. His reports have brought justice to rape victims and students whose scholarships were embezzled by school officials.

He is active in civil society and serves on the Dalit Citizen Movement Central Coordination Committee in his spare time.
