Through over 37 years of merciless and corrupt dictatorship,
which has imposed upon the population of Togo misery, illiteracy,
and massive violations of human rights, we have realized the
need for us to take charge of our own destiny, the need to
educate our youth and work hard for the development of our
country. Togo, a small but beautiful west-African country,
is almost unknown in rest of the world, out of Africa. Therefore

For long, the government-controlled press was the only source
of information available in the country. That press indulged
in deception and misrepresentation on the actual situation
of the Togolese populations, and on the social, political,
or economical situation of the country. Nowadays, alternative
media exist: private newspapers, party and associations bulletins,
individual or organizations websites, etc
The government does not spare any means to prevent Togolese
citizens, in Togo, from accessing the free media, nor does
it want news of their abominations to reach the free world.
Websites are block at will, foreign radio stations are jammed
on occasion, and journalists are persecuted through various
methods (threats, arbitrary arrests, torture, confiscation
of papers, destruction of infrastructure, etc
)
Bâtir Le Togo is committed to doing its best to bring
light on the plight of the Togolese people and to inform the
International Community on the true nature of the regime in
place in Togo for more than 37 years.
This section "International Campaign against Dictatorship
in Togo" is the portal to its various initiatives and
to the initiatives of other organizations, as well as to numerous
resources that exist on the Internet about the abuses and
failures of the Eyadéma regime.
