About Us
- Stand With Tigray (SWT) was founded on November 6, 2020, in reaction to the unjust war and genocide waged on the people of Ethiopia’s northernmost region, Tigray, by central government forces, Eritrean forces, and armed Amhara militias. Stand with Tigray has become a global campaign whose aim is to raise awareness about the war crimes and human rights violations committed against the Tigrayan people in Ethiopia.
Our Mission
SWT’s mission is to also advocate for an immediate ceasefire and peaceful dialogues between warring factions while calling for unrestricted humanitarian access and independent investigations of war crimes. Due to the central Government of Ethiopia’s imposed communication blackout in the Tigray region, the Tigrayan Diasporas are not able to reach their families, journalists have restricted access to report on the war, and the people of Tigray are left voiceless. SWT Campaign aims to be that voice. Join the movement. #StopWarOnTIgray

Picture from aerial bombardment by Eritrean forces in #AdiDaero #Tigray Many of the casualties are buried in rubbles. @UNHumanRights @amnesty genocidal regimes in Ethiopia and Eritrea have continued their #TigrayGenocide campaign relentlessly.
How about you activate Starlink for Tigray while you are at it? The Ethiopian gov has cut off 7M ppl in Tigray from the rest of the world. @elonmusk
