I pledge to:
- I will stand up to all forms of hatred;
- When I hear the language of “us and them” I will reach out and find common ground;
- When I hear stereotyping and scapegoating, I will find and share alternative positive stories;
- When I see discrimination in my school or workplace I will challenge this and promote equal opportunities for all
- When I hear dehumanising language, I will remind the speaker of our common humanity;
- When I see members of my own community becoming disenfranchised, I will make an effort to engage and include them;
- When I hear divisive propaganda, I will challenge this effectively;
- When those who speak out against human rights abuses are in danger, I will speak out to protect them;
- Where I see persecution, I will do everything in my power to protect those who are suffering;
- Where I believe mass killing is taking place, I will call on my government and the international community to take immediate action;
- I will always challenge denial by believing the victims and sharing their stories.
