Incorporating Asian Voices Europe as a Nonprofit

Donation protected
Asian Voices Europe is an action group dedicated to facilitating communication and dialogue on the subject of racism and racial discrimination against Asians in Europe. We strive to promote cultural diversity and human rights of Asians and Asian diasporas in Europe.

During the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, discrimination against Asians has increased drastically. We have been recording incidents and finding what solutions Asians want and need in order to deal with racist discrimination.

Thanks to a dedicated volunteer team of artists, designers, human rights activists, journalists, researchers and product managers, we have been able to launch several projects. Now we are in need of formally setting up our organization.

Our goal is to set up Asian Voices Europe as a foundation before the end of July to gain legal standing with the Dutch government and other anti-discrimination agencies.

We'd be grateful for any help, so we can keep working on our current projects and to expand our efforts.


ACHIEVEMENTS

1. Survey 1.0: We conducted a survey on racism perceived by Asians in the Netherlands and Germany. The results have been cited in this May 2020  report by the Dutch Anti-Discrimination Federation.

2. Petition: We asked the German Federal Anti-Discrimination Agency and the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance to set up a hotline for reporting hate crimes against Asians (in initial stages)

3. Partnerships: We are currently working with diverse groups on activism and cultural projects. Our current partners are: Dona Daria, MeToo Asians e.V., Non Native Native, Out&Abroad, and Pan Asian Collective

4. External Activities: Meeting with the Amsterdam City Council and other Asian groups to discuss inclusion of Asian history in Dutch education; Panel on anti-Asian discrimination by Fraser Framed Amsterdam x Pan Asian Collective (link)
