Celebrating 25 years of the UN Declaration on human rights defenders

25 years ago the the Declaration on Human Rights Defenders was adopted by the UN. It may be a time to celebrate the achievements and the people who were involved, on the other hand there is still so much to do, as we are far behind what could have been achieved.

In the project mentioned in the article, contributions are being asked for to collect (new) ideas and add momentum to the next step on attacking the still present issues on human rights.

Any positive contribution will surely be welcome.

We’re seeking the input and voices from human rights defenders everywhere. To do so, we are consulting online and offline with human rights defenders across the globe.
