Coptic Solidarity is at the forefront of a modern civil rights movement to achieve equality for the indigenous Coptic Christians of Egypt and other minorities in the region. We support those in Egypt working for democracy, freedom, and the protection of the fundamental rights of all Egyptian citizens. Our international organization has headquarters in the Washington, D.C., area in the U.S., with key branches currently in Canada, France, and Egypt. Our organization believes that the international community plays a key role in helping ensure the protection and upholding of the rights of religious and ethnic minorities.

Our Mission

We are Coptic Solidarity, dedicated to advocating equal citizenship for the Coptic Christians of Egypt and minorities in the Middle East.

Coptic Solidarity will advocate and work to advance the universal human rights and total equality for the Copts in Egypt through all peaceful and civil means sanctioned by international standards and with moral and material support of institutions within and outside Egypt that promote equality and fight discrimination based on religion, gender, race or personal beliefs.

Coptic Solidarity - What We Do

We are a watchdog over the events and policies in Egypt; we help increase awareness of the situation of Copts in Egypt; and solicit the support of international public opinion and policy makers. We promote positive developments in Egypt such as secularized rule, equality, and liberty. We also hold Egyptian authorities accountable for their acts.To do this we use:

Newsletters
Traditional media including press releases and interviews
Increased social media presence on Facebook and Twitter
Campaigns, rallies and demonstrations
