Adopt a Revolution
In 2011, tens of thousands of Syrians took to the streets in peaceful protest against the dictatorship of Bashar al Assad in a demand for dignity, freedom and justice. As a response, German and Syrian activists founded Adopt a Revolution in 2012 to support the young Syrian democracy movement and draw attention to its brutal oppression. The peaceful uprising against the Assad regime turned into a civil war, which has developed into an international war fueled by arms supplies and military interventions of many actors. Adopt a Revolution supports civil society projects in Syria that, despite war and terror, work for an open, democratic society based on human rights and minority rights at the local level.
