ASSAM TEA GARDENS

The breathtaking beauty of the gardens stands in stark juxtaposition to the inhuman living and labour conditions faced by tea garden workers. A 360° interactive advocacy and educational tool.

VIEW PROJECT

HELM Studio partners with human rights defenders and their organisations to ideate, design, and build social design solutions that promote human rights and access to justice. This approach combines grassroots experience-based expertise with legal, media, and technology proficiency. Together, we use cutting-edge educational, legal, and media tools to magnify human rights violations, claim rights, and access justice.

PROBLEM

From restrictive NGO provisions in Uganda to shrinking foreign funding for human rights initiatives in India, civil society space throughout the world is shrinking at an alarming rate.

SOLUTION

As virtual spaces are assuming an increasingly critical role in public dissent, technology and innovation can be key drivers of social justice.

INNOVATION

At HELM Studio, we use digital and technological innovation to support human rights defenders and social movements. Our advanced technologies dramatically improve reach, advocacy, and impact.
