The coalition builds the capacity of Sites of Conscience to develop, share, and adapt innovative public programs that move people from memory to action through organizing trainings and project support fund. The coalition connects Sites of Conscience within and across regions so that they can collectively address new threats to democracy and human rights as they arise through global collaborations, regional networks and online connections. The coalition also mobilizes a global movement of people across generations, experiences, and opinions to take action that impacts our present and shapes our future. The Coalition oversees almost 200 Sites of Conscience from 55 countries, each working together to connect past to present and memory to action.Following the positive contacts that we have carried out, in April 2016, the Hrant Dink Foundation has become the first member of the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience from Turkey.
