THE FEDE PRESENTS:

> FEDE HUMAN RIGHTS PRIZE
> LABEL CIVIC HEI

Claude Vivier Le Got, Chairwoman of the FEDE

We consider the defense and promotion of human rights to be a core part of our commitment. All of our research, all of our teaching materials, all of our actions and all of our training courses are designed around the challenges of citizenship, democracy and human rights.

We hope that these values inspire all of our learning paths because we are convinced that they enhance the quality of teaching and contribute to the challenge of better living together. By sharing these values with our international community of close to 300,000 people, we are ensuring that we will train a generation of ambassadors of the ideals of progress; protectors, defenders and promoters of these founding principles
