At the Nobel Peace Prize events, WLC co-founder Masih Alinejad met with Venezuelan leader and laureate María Corina Machado — two women united in their fight against tyranny. Their meeting is a reminder that the struggle for liberty transcends borders — and that when freedom fighters unite, authoritarianism trembles. “Wounded but unbowed to dictators. From Venezuela to Iran, we become freedom.” #NobelForVenezuela

Today, on #InternationalHumanRightsDay, we remember that for millions, rights remain a promise, not a reality. Across continents, people risk their lives to resist tyranny. We stand with women whose rights are attacked for daring to lead, speak, and demand equality. We demand the release of all political prisoners, whose rights are violated every day. No voice should be punished for speaking truth. Every person deserves freedom. Every right must be defended. Human rights belong to all — and their defense begins with you.

Today marks 1 year since the unjust and arbitrary detention of Jesús Armas, WLC member, by the Venezuelan regime. Speaking truth to power and defending human rights is not a crime—yet Jesús remains imprisoned without having the opportunity to a fair trial, simply for standing up for freedom and justice. We demand his immediate and unconditional release. #NobelForVenezuela

Nilofar Ayoubi, former WLC Regional Secretary for MENA, delivered a summary speech at the General Assembly in Berlin, bringing the voice of Afghan and Iranian women to the global stage. Her message was a powerful call for unity and hope, emphasizing that the fight for fundamental women's rights and freedoms continues with unwavering resolve. #Freedom

From the World Liberty Congress, we unequivocally condemn the cruelty committed by the Maduro regime in the case of Alfredito Díaz, a former governor and political prisoner whose death in custody reflects the regime’s ongoing brutality. Denied the medical attention he desperately needed, Díaz was left to die inside El Helicoide, the biggest torture center in Latin America. His death is a stark reminder of the systemic abuses suffered by countless political detainees. We urge the international community to demand the immediate release of all political prisoners in Venezuela and around the world, and to stand firm in defending human rights, freedom, and justice worldwide.

At the WLC General Assembly in Berlin, former WLC President Masih Alinejad opened with a powerful call to action: the time has come to bring down authoritarianism — and the strength to do it lies in each of us. Her message was clear: this movement is driven by the courage, determination, and unity of people who refuse to be silenced. “It’s all about you”. #togetherwearestronger #Freedom

At the General Assembly in Berlin, the former vice president of the World Liberty Congress, Garry Kasparov, delivered his opening remarks, stressing that this is a fight we, the real fighters, must win against dictators everywhere, abroad and within our own countries. He ended with a message of resolve and hope, declaring that together, “we shall overcome.” #Freedom #HumanRights

At the WLC General Assembly in Berlin, former Secretary General Leopoldo López reflected on the origins of the World Liberty Congress — how it began as a bold idea and has grown into the largest global alliance of pro-democracy leaders and freedom fighters. His remarks were a powerful reminder of the strength that comes from unity, courage, and a shared commitment to advancing human rights and democracy around the world.

WLC honors the women whose strength drives our world forward. Violence against women is a violation of our shared humanity. #togetherwearestronger
