About Avaaz

Avaaz is a global web movement to bring people-powered politics to decision-making everywhere. Avaaz—meaning "voice" in several European, Middle Eastern and Asian languages—launched in 2007 with a simple democratic mission: organize citizens of all nations to close the gap between the world we have and the world most people everywhere want. The Avaaz community campaigns in 17 languages, served by a core team on 6 continents and thousands of volunteers. We take action -- signing petitions, funding media campaigns and direct actions, emailing, calling and lobbying governments, and organizing "offline" protests and events -- to ensure that the views and values of the world's people inform the decisions that affect us all. Any questions or concerns please message us on our contact us form: https://avaaz-docs-en.helpscoutdocs.com

I have supported causes for 16 years I have supported causes for 16 years on Avaaz, for indigenous people, for women's right and for the nature. Avaaz has always represented all kind of people, and they continously inform and involve the members and those interested. I know there has been and is a certain unbalance regarding e.g. the Middle East, but no worry - you are always welcome to make your own petition! And like anyone else, I can simply choose what to sign and what not to sign. I never got any spam from them. I have supported 7-8 causes without problems. I also supported monthly for 2 years, and had to stop 2 years ago. I emailed them, and they cancelled my monthly payment. I startet again 6 months ago, because they do a highly important job. Greetings from Finn Larsen, Denmark!

A formidable organisation A formidable organisation. Anything or anyone that can mobilise and draw together such large numbers of diverse people from around the world for the greater good is to be commended. It's founding principles are sound. More of it needed to oppose the dying order of the mass right wing media . !

So many funny reviews... It's so funny (and depressing) how many people here are calling Avaaz fake and coming up with all sort of crazy conspiracy theories. Just because their actions are not compatible with your nationalist or ideological framework doesn't mean they aren't doing good things. And not only good things, but things most people with empathy and common sense can and will agree with. They are not against particular countries or peoples but they do campaign against unethical practices and corrupt and draconian politics. That is important on every possible level. I do however agree that they send quite a lot of messages which is sometimes annoying. But that is a small price to pay for trying to make the world a better place.

Although people have signed petitions… Although people have signed petitions in front of me and gone through the process of verifying, they are not a robot. The application does not update with their signature nor does it increase the ticker as to the number of people signing the petition!

Avaaz is a fake organisation I suddenly started getting spam from this organisation. At first I just erased them but then as they kept coming I opened an email and it said I had become a member after signing a petition. I NEVER SIGNED ANY. So Avaaz just picks random email addresses and claim they signed petitions. This renders all their petitions worthless since they are not to be trusted. Fraudulent, fake and sheit.
