Foundation The London Story (TLS) is a non-profit organisation led by Indian diaspora, and a leading voice promoting human rights and democratic values in EU-India relations. TLS’ objectives are to investigate human rights violations and abuses, analyse and document governmental and non-governmental action that perpetuates or ignores human rights abuses and violations, and advocate for justice, peace, and collective action against grave human rights violations. TLS specifically focuses on misinformation, disinformation, hate speech, and online propaganda that lead to violations of core human rights to life, liberty and health, especially in India and among diaspora communities.

Profile:

The work will entail an exciting combination of advocacy on human rights, digital policy, foreign policy and related topics in EU-India relations.
