Human rights activists are expected to be: agenda setters, catalysts,
promoters, conveners, finders of seed money, collectors, disseminators,
advocates, educators, linkers, sponsors, defenders, observers, judges,
presenters of the proper and contesters of the faulty evidence, pushers of
changes-people-can-believe-in (D. Gwatkin), visionaries that see tomorrow
when others only see today, active opponents of corporations that violate
social and environmental standards in their operations, vectors/promoters/
announcers of the new human rights (HR) paradigm?
