RFK Compass Investors

RFK Human Rights was created by Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, a nonpartisan, not-for-profit organization founded in 1968 to advance Senator Robert F. Kennedy’s legacy of a more just and peaceful world. Fostering a social-good approach to business, RFK Compass Investors works with a network of institutional investors, fund managers, and investment consultants who represent almost $7 trillion in assets under management to protect human rights while achieving investment returns. Together, the RFK Compass Investors community is harnessing the power of the sector in favor of racial and economic justice.

New year, new us. Same mission.

Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights is rebranding to honor the legacy of our founder and hero, Mrs. Ethel Skakel Kennedy. From now on, we will proudly be known as the Robert & Ethel Kennedy Human Rights Center

While our name is changing, our mission and work remain the same. We will continue to fight injustice, advance human rights, and hold governments accountable around the world in 2026 and beyond.
