PILLAR——保护个人生命、自由与权利组织正式成立
（PILLAR新闻稿）
–
PILLAR是一家总部位于新西兰的公民自由捍卫机构，致力于构建一个珍视自由的文化、一个以自由为先的制度，以及一个彼此尊重、珍视彼此内在价值和尊严的人民。我们的使命很简单：我们坚定不移地捍卫自由，让每一位新西兰人都能享有自由。
执行主任 Nathan Seiuli 表示：“我们通过法庭诉讼、立法改革、公众倡议和社区动员，恢复并强化民主的支柱——良知、思想与探究的自由，言论自由，宗教自由，结社与集会自由，以及隐私权——从而为个人自由而奋斗。”
“在全球范围内，我们正目睹那些数十年来引领自由与权利的国家出现严重倒退。无法进行艰难对话、无法探讨不受欢迎或具争议的观点、政府权力不断扩张、外国干预加剧，以及对个人生命价值的漠视，这些都在造成深刻分裂，并使民主和公民自由不断倒退。”
“PILLAR 不是智库，也不是党派倡导团体。PILLAR 是一个以原则为先、身处前线、反应迅速的运动，致力于保护个人的生命、自由和权利。”
塞乌利还表示：““有些人根据你的身份、居住地、祖先是谁，或你存在于哪个时代来赋予权利，而我认为，权利是根植于每一个个体之中、不可改变、不可剥夺的天赋——这是上帝赋予每个人的。”
“我们很高兴能够投身于重大议题的解决，推动真正的变革，并为那些以新西兰为家的人们服务。希望他们能够加入我们，共同努力，使新西兰成为世界上最自由的国家。”

Press Release: PILLAR
PILLAR is a New Zealand–based civil liberties powerhouse with a vision for a culture that cherishes freedom, a system that prioritises liberty, and a people who recognise the innate value and dignity of one another. Our mission is simple: we stand firm so every New Zealander can stand free.
“We fight for individual liberty by restoring and strengthening the pillars of democracy – freedom of conscience, thought and inquiry, speech, religion, association and assembly, and the right to privacy – through courtroom action, legislative reform, public campaigns, and community mobilisation,” says Executive Director Nathan Seiuli.
“Around the globe, we are witnessing a serious decline in nations that for decades led the way on freedom and liberty. The inability to have difficult conversations, explore unpopular or controversial ideas, growing government overreach, foreign interference, and a diminished regard for individual life are causing deep divisions and pushing democracy and civli liberty backwards.”
“PILLAR is not a think tank or a partisan advocacy group. PILLAR is a principle-first, frontline, rapid-response movement dedicated to Protecting Individual Life, Liberty, and Rights.”
“While some grant rights based on who you are, where you live, who your ancestors were, or when you happen to exist, I see them as immutable, irrecoverable gifts imbued in every individual in light of the imago Dei,” remarked Seiuli.
“We are excited to get stuck into major issues, push for real change, and serve the individuals who call New Zealand home. And hopefully, they will join us in the fight to make New Zealand the freest nation in the world.”
