Social inclusion
All individuals should have the right to be an equal member of society, with the same human rights regardless of gender, disabilities and social status.
IM is a Swedish development cooperation organisation working to achieve a world free from poverty and exclusion.

Civil society and civic space
The civil society plays an important part in a democratic society. It represents and defends marginalized groups while raising awareness.
