Recognitions
‘Progress March On’ is a web platform designed to encourage people to acknowledge, educate, and advocate for human rights issues globally using design, art, and music. This platform aims to educate people about human rights issues which should be inherently non-political. These issues only become politicized because the demand of basic rights for oppressed communities challenges traditionally established unjust power structures. 'Progress March On' seeks to encourage rich conversations which address and dissect the imbalances of power historically held and perpetuated. Politics are a mess though. Politics are loud, emotional, passionate, and dividing. Our mission is to use design and art to open gateways of interest which encourage others to dive deeper into the difficult topics.
Learn
The ‘Learn’ functionality of ‘Progress March On’ allows visitors to quickly and thoroughly educate themselves about three chosen topics: Racial discrimination against black POC with relevance to police brutality; Hong Kong Protests against the abolition of their autonomy and police brutality; and the lack of basic rights for the LGBTQ+ community throughout history. ‘Progress March On’ also aims to continue covering additional topics. Users can browse through a concise summary, a carousel of current events, and a brief history of the selected human rights issue as well as access a short list of associated organizations and charities.
Contribute
The ‘Progress March On’ store allows users to contribute to causes through the sales of design, art, music, and campaign packages. Donating through us means transparency of how and where contributions are being used. ‘Progress March On’ aims to encourage charitable contributions by offering advocates something tangible for their generosity. It is important for us to work in collaboration with charities to ensure contributions are utilized in a meaningful way.
Campaign
Campaign packages are an integral part of the 'Progress March On' mission. We want to encourage people to care about issues not local to them as well as issues that do not directly affect them. In order for noise to be made outside of the geographical boundaries of such politics, local advocates are essential to global visibility. Campaign packages include flyers, posters, brochures, postcards, buttons, stickers, and a flag to help activists spread the message.
