Ritika Mehra, founder of the Bridging the Gap Foundation in the Netherlands, shares her journey and insights into how cultural connection and community engagement can strengthen human rights on the ground. As societies become increasingly multicultural, conversations about human rights grow even more relevant; her work highlights the importance of community life and ensuring access to information and support, especially for migrants. Many of the rights her work touches on relate to cultural identity and the freedom to participate in cultural life, and she always emphasizes that integration is a two-way street.
