The 88 Project supports and encourages freedom of expression in Vietnam by sharing the stories of and advocating for Vietnamese activists who are persecuted because of their peaceful dissent.
Our vision is that one day the Vietnamese people will be able to freely express themselves and actively take part in socio-political processes to bring about the changes they desire without fear of discrimination or persecution.
