Justice beyond Jails Campaign
Just Futures Collaborative is a feminist initiative cultivating global cross-movement strategies for challenging criminalization, promoting human rights, and protecting democracy. We bring together people and groups that are challenging criminalization and experimenting with approaches that address harm with humanity. We ignite collaboration, collective imagination and power for just futures and counter highly coordinated anti-gender, anti-democracy actors.
Our Mission:
To create a resilient, feminist, transnational community of individual and organizational advocates who challenge criminalization. Together, we create and strengthen analytical links between different forms of harm, and advocate for safer, more sustainable solutions to rights violation.
Our Vision:
We envision a world free from the degradation of criminalization, where harm is addressed through engaged social processes to ensure justice, wellbeing, security, human rights, democracy and peace for all.
