About us
Right to Be is a global, people-powered movement to end harassment. We work together to understand the problem, ignite public conversations, and develop innovative strategies that ensure equal access to public spaces. We leverage the very spaces where harassment happens – from online to the streets – to have each other’s backs and build a world where we can all be who we are, wherever we are.

Imane Khelif’s journey at the Paris Olympics was more than just about boxing; it was a fight for dignity and respect against unfair scrutiny. Her experience, along with Lin Yu-ting, who also faced gender discrimination at the Paris 2024 Olympics, reminds us that these issues extend beyond sports into every area of life. Gender policing disproportionately affects women of color, often rooted in stereotypes that question their identity and femininity. It’s crucial to challenge these biases and create a more inclusive world.

Imagine living with the constant fear that an online harasser could turn into a real-world threat. Rosamund Urwin’s story is a chilling reminder that what happens online doesn’t always stay online. Journalists put themselves in the public eye every day, facing dangers that go beyond their screens. We need to protect those who bring us the truth. Visit hateandhope.righttobe.org to find support, and resources, or to share your story. #ElectSafely #EndOnlineHarassment #SupportJournalists
