Protect defenders at risk
Defending human rights is most dangerous where it is most needed. Around the world, unscrupulous states and corporations want to silence critical voices and stop activists. Bringing human rights violations to the fore and defending rights requires enormous courage.
You can help by donating money to our Resilience Fund, which protects persecuted human rights activists when they critically need it and helps them to prepare for future security risks.
