For #16DaysOfActivism against Gender-Based Violence, we commissioned the incredible Rozalina Burkova to create a new set of visuals. Bold. Loud. Yours to use. Violence against women is a global emergency. According to the most recent UN data, in just the past year, 11% of women 15 were harmed by an intimate partner. And nearly 1 in 3 women worldwide have experienced physical and/or sexual violence in their lifetime. And while leaving is complex, often unsafe, and rarely straightforward – this work aims to empower those navigating danger. These illustrations (and thousands others) are free on TheGreats.co. Where they go next is up to you. Let’s lose losers. For good.

Jambo! 👋 – this time from the 2025 @TEDCountdown Summit in Nairobi 🌏🗣️ We are just back from Kenya, where @TEDCountdown brought together a visionary global group of innovators, scientists, policymakers, artists, and activists – all united in their commitment to building a brighter future. Fine Acts is a strategic partner of Countdown – @TEDTalks global initiative to champion and accelerate solutions to the climate crisis – ever since its launch in 2020. In Kenya, we collaborated on a couple of awesome creative interventions – stay tuned for details!

Over the next three years, we’ll be dedicating much of our efforts to this space – more to come soon! 🌟 Huge thanks to the amazing @TEDCountdown and @TEDFellow teams, Kairos Futura, @TEDxNairobi, @tedxamazonia, and all the incredible artists, activists, and humans we got to work and hang out with! 💚

We were honored to be part of the 2024 @ObamaFoundation #DemocracyForum! Our co-founder, Pavel Kounchev, joined President @BarackObama, global civil society, community & business leaders, democracy experts & policymakers in Chicago to explore the importance of pluralism in the current times through authentic storytelling, connection, and finding communality within an increasingly polarized world. 🤝❤️ 🚀 We need more dreamers! And we at Fine Acts stay committed to making spaces, tools, and opportunities for them. 👏 Shoutout to @VancityReynolds and @TheReynaRoberts for all the inspiration.
