🔍📢 PI is proud to present its latest research project, titled “Voices for Peace - The critical role of Women Human Rights Defenders (WHRDs) in Nigeria’s peacebuilding landscape”. For this project, PI sought the testimonies of women HRDs who are on the frontline of addressing conflicts and building peace in their communities in #Nigeria. 🇳🇬 Nine women agreed to be interviewed, and shared with PI how they contribute to peacebuilding in their country, what kind of challenges they face when doing so, and how they remain resilient and safe, among other things. The report is available in English and French and can be found here: https://lnkd.in/eywn3tAA

Defending #HumanRights is inherently a collective practice. #HRDs act both individually and as a group. Therefore, protection should also be collective. On #HumanRightsDay2024, we want to announce that our paper on #CollectiveProtection is now also available in Spanish, French and Russian. Help us spread the word and stand for the right to defend human rights! https://lnkd.in/gehnvNkT

This weekend, we honour the bravery and resilience of Women Human Rights Defenders worldwide. As our Executive Director Mae Ocampo highlights, WHRDs stand at the intersection of multiple forms of discrimination, yet they continue to fight for justice and equality against all odds. 🌍 Protection International stands firmly with WHRDs, committing to combat systemic discrimination and promote solidarity. Together, we envision a world where the rights of WHRDs are protected, respected, and celebrated. ✊ #WomenHRDs #HumanRightsDefenders #Solidarity

Self-care is a powerful act of resistance for Women Human Rights Defenders. As Phanice Odacha, our Regional Director in Africa, reminds us, caring for ourselves ensures we have the strength to protect others. On the day after #WHRDsDay, we call on governments to recognize and protect the rights of WHRDs globally, ensuring their voices are heard and their resilience upheld. 💪✨

On International Women Human Rights Defenders Day, we share the words of our Regional Director of PI Mesoamerica, Anabella Sibrian, who reminds us of some of the challenges faced by #WomenHRDs, especially in the context of business and human rights. We stand for women's rights to defend human rights.
