Trickle Up’s Commitment to Human Rights

At Trickle Up, we are deeply committed to advancing the dignity, rights, and opportunities of all people, especially those who are marginalized and excluded. Through our work with Indigenous and tribal communities, people with disabilities, refugees, migrants, and youth, we strive to break down barriers to equality and empower individuals to thrive.  

Human rights are the foundation of every effort we undertake, and we remain committed to ensuring that all people, regardless of their circumstances, have the resources and opportunities to live, thrive, and succeed with dignity. 

Our Commitments: 

  1. Right to Dignity and Respect: We commit to fostering an environment where all individuals are treated with dignity, respect, and empathy. 
  2. Right to Equality and Non-Discrimination: We are dedicated to eliminating all forms of discrimination and bias, ensuring equal access to resources and opportunities.  
  3. Right to Economic Empowerment: We will provide marginalized populations with the tools, training, coaching, and linkages to market and government services they need to achieve sustainable livelihoods and economic independence. 
  4. Right to Participation and Agency: We uphold individuals’ right to actively participate in their communities and in decisions that affect their lives, ensuring they have agency in shaping their futures. 
  5. Right to Health, Safety, and Well-Being: We are committed to creating environments that promote the health, safety, and well-being of vulnerable populations through food security support, nutrition education, and resilience in the face of adversity.
