If governments won’t build back better – as they build back broken – we are left with little option. We must scrutinize every decision and fight every attempt to muzzle our voices. But we must also step up and towards each other. We must build together a more tangible, demanding and insistent movement for global solidarity – people to people to people. If our leaders won’t lead us to rights, then rights must lead us to each other. For that we must organize, support and enable a global movement for justice. We know that ultimately our futures and our fates are intertwined and interdependent – people to planet. We know it. We must live it. We need to take charge – human rights charge – and demand together global governance for the rights of each one of us, to the exception of none of us, in the interests of all of us. Now, let’s together – all of us – incubate that. Agnès Callamard, Secretary General Amnesty International Amnesty International Report 2021/22 xii
