About Us Our History Our Concept Current Priority Press Archives
The Afro-Egyptian Human Rights Organization AEHRO

We are a non-profit civil society organization led by apolitical professionals who believe that all citizens empowered with monitoring can actively participate in public life and positively influence much needed improvements at a moment in time where Africa & Egypt are experiencing a mild increase in the level of national & political awareness.

As such we believe that it is our duty to help fellow citizens capture & harness the positive impact of these changes and use it to create a much more proactive society: one that is hardworking & responsible, that is inclusive & tolerant, a society that can select its leaders and hold them accountable.

We pledge to act as a catalyst that enables positive transformation wanting:

  • To mobilize ordinary citizens – especially the youths- from all walks of life to engage on the reform problems facing their society (including executive branch domination of society, lack of judiciary independence, and corruption).

  • To inculcate a "pro-democracy monitoring culture" combined with elements of consumer protection and advocacy campaigns amongst the citizens.

  • Improve the civil society’s coordination ensuring that they work together synergistically towards a common goal.
