Bring hope to forgotten conflicts
In a world darkened by conflict and human rights abuses, Baroness Caroline Cox stands as a beacon of light.
Baroness Cox founded HART in 2004 to show solidarity with communities who are persecuted, marginalised, oppressed and ignored by the world’s media.
The perfect rebuttal of the defeatist view that because the world is a complex and inordinately brutal place no individual can do anything much to change it.
Caroline has travelled to places where many others are unwilling or unable to go, using her seat in the House of Lords to shine a light on forgotten conflicts.
Others in the West offer to send aid to those who are persecuted – that aid may or may not arrive – but Baroness Cox comes herself.
Awards for her humanitarian work include:
- The International Mother Teresa Award
- The Wilberforce Award for her work to combat slavery
- Mkhitar Gosh Medal conferred by the President of Armenia
- Commander Cross of the Order of Merit of Poland
- Honorary Doctorates from universities in the UK and beyond
