Who we are
Who we are
An NGO with Consultative Status at the United Nations (DPI), Justice for All is a non-profit organization based in Chicago. Incorporated in 1999, Justice For All grew out of advocacy on the human rights abuses in Bosnia and later Kosovo during the break-up of the former Yugoslavia. At the time, it was instrumental in shaping the discourse around the ‘genocide’ debate and campaigned to declare rape as a war crime in international law. Justice For All has a presence via staff & volunteers in Washington DC, New York, Boston, Houston and other locations.
Justice For All is funded by faith community donors who take a keen interest in the furtherance of human rights both, in the United States and outside its shores. Its broad mandate is to educate fellow citizens on human rights and social justice concerns. We provide guidance for action through regular newsletters and extensive media engagement.

Work summary
Burma Task Force: Since 2012, our focus has been to raise awareness regarding the persecution of ethnic and religious minorities in Burma as the Burma Task Force, supporting a more robust US and international response to the Rohingya Genocide. Since 2017, our Washington DC staff has worked to inform policymakers regarding the persecution and genocidal policies in Burma. Our work has increased humanitarian access and engagement as well as sought to amplify Rohingya voices. We also welcome Karen, Kachin, Shan and other Christian communities that are also persecuted in Burma.
Faith Coalition Against Genocide: In early 2018, we developed an interfaith coalition as the Faith Coalition Against Genocide. We have also increasingly emphasized inter-ethnic solidarity among leaders in the diaspora spanning our campaigns, convening meetings and conferences.
