Handa Center students and staff in Cambodia
The Handa Center is grateful to our generous contributing partners, whose financial support makes our work on and off campus possible. Financial support enables the Center to engage globally, and incorporate students in all aspects of our work. This is how we fulfill our mission to build a new generation of leaders in this field, equipping them with the knowledge and skills necessary to protect and promote human rights, justice, and dignity for all.

Funding Priorities
Our programs are steadily growing. Student interest is rapidly increasing. Donations to the Handa Center enable us to collaborate with partners across Stanford University and beyond on innovative programs that foster critical inquiry in the classroom and in the world. The Center leverages partnership resources wherever possible in order to maximize the impact of gifts, and strives to complement, not duplicate, the efforts of others working on similar programming or initiatives.
