Educating for Justice Mission
Mission Statement
Educating for Justice is deeply committed to the belief that all people value justice, fairness and the dignity of every human person. We recognize however, that many people in our global community are unaware of the social injustices that undermine the unity of our human family. Educating for Justice works to rectify this problem.
Strategy
We believe that the most effective means of education include elements of immersion, analysis, reflection and action. To this end, we have been diligently working on a grassroots, cross-border solidarity campaign as a model for ending social injustice through education, empowerment and action.
Campaign Focus
Our Nike Corporate Accountability Campaign began with a one-month immersion experience living with Nike's factory workers on $1.25 a day in an Indonesian village, home to many of Nike's workers. Through this campaign, we work to educate the public about the human stories of Nike's factory workers and to educate the workers about their rights and worth in the global marketplace. Through such education, we strive to empower both workers and consumers to take action with the goal of establishing justice in the workplace and peace in our global family.
