INSAF (Indian Social Action Forum) was established in 1993, when the social action groups and people's movements were struggling to cope up with the changing realities of globalization & religious fundamentalism in the country. With time, it has grown into a national forum with a political thrust, bringing together over 600 social action groups, people's movements and progressive intellectuals to resist globalization, combat communalism and defend democracy.
INSAF is active in over 15 states of India as a political forum of NGOs, trade unions, people's movements and grassroots organisations to garner all progressive forces in society to:
RESIST GLOBALISATION
COMBAT COMMUNALISM
DEFEND DEMOCRACY
