Our Story

Satyarthi Movement For Global Compassion (SMGC) founded by Nobel Peace Laureate Kailash Satyarthi, is a global movement that champions compassion as a driving force for action and transformation. Its mission is to build a world rooted in justice, equality, peace, and sustainability through compassionate leadership and action across all areas of life.

SMGC is committed to ‘Globalising Compassion’.

 We believe that Compassion is not a soft emotion – it is a powerful force, born from feeling another’s suffering as one’s own and taking mindful action to end that suffering.

Embracing compassion as a way of life
Mr. Satyarthi has inspired millions of people across 140 countries to fight against child slavery and ensure freedom, education, equality and justice for the voiceless and the most marginalised.

Let us enlarge our circle of compassion and pledge to act selflessly for those who need it the most.

Kailash Satyarthi

A huge fire broke out in the forest. All the animals were running away, including the lion, the king of the forest.
Suddenly, he saw a tiny bird rushing straight towards the fire. He asked the bird, “What are you doing?” To the lion's surprise, the bird replied, “I am going to extinguish the fire.” The lion laughed and said, “How can you do it keeping just one drop of water in your beak?” But the bird was adamant, and said, “I am doing my bit.”
