Nuri

Nuri Kino, the founder of A Demand For Action (ADFA) , is a distinguished Swedish investigative journalist, multi-award-winning author, filmmaker, and dedicated human rights advocate. The latest awards are from this year: The Kavian Prize, handed over by the Swedish minister of Social Affairs and Bronze in Global Good Awards.

Kino has fearlessly ventured into dangerous environments to defend the rights of oppressed communities. His efforts include rescuing trafficked individuals, dismantling pedophile rings, and monitoring and exposing perpetrators of ethnic and religious persecution.

In 2014, Kino founded ADFA as a social media campaign to raise awareness about ongoing genocide. Since then, ADFA has evolved into a global advocacy and humanitarian aid organization, operating in countries such as Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Armenia, Turkey, and Ukraine.

Nuri Kino and ADFA’s advocacy contributed to President Obama changing his foreign policy, President Trump allocating aid to vulnerable indigenous people in Iraq, and President Biden recognizing the 1915 genocide of Armenians, Assyrians/Chaldeans/Syriacs, and Greeks.

Nuri Kino is frequently invited to speak at human rights conferences and is interviewed by international media outlets such as The Sunday Times and Sky News. He also writes for Newsweek, Svenska Dagbladet (The Swedish Daily News), and Global Bar Magazine.

Building on his humanitarian efforts, his latest charity project, Survivor Jewelry, is set to launch later this year. Stay tuned for updates.

Compassion Fashion is Nuri’s newest ADFA initiative: a dress and tuxedo rental boutique in Stockholm (Folkungagatan 65, Södermalm) where every rental directly supports food, safety, and relief for people in need. The shop offers formalwear for women, men, and children and also accepts donations of gently used party attire—turning glamour into concrete help for vulnerable communities.
