Raseef22 is an independent media platform but not a neutral one. Rather, it declares its unwavering stance on a number of values, principles, and causes.

We are biased towards the people and their aspirations, we are partial to the principles of human rights, and we stand with everything that contributes to building societies that are open to and accept difference.
