Human rights defenders and advocates share their learning experiences.
Grassroot rights defenders face diverse security risks, some of which are extremely technical in nature. They even push one to a corner of isolation and defeat. But with the training on situational mapping, physical security and exchange programs with other rights defenders I am able to mitigate with ease. You should also be part of the training programs to learn on how to best protect yourself in your work
My expectations from the wellbeing and physical security training were met and exceeded. The instructors are were top notch. They depicted a mastery that ensured that we understood the basic concepts that will not only benefit us but also grassroot human rights defenders through peer learning
The digital security training was fascinating. The trainers was excellent, his knowledge, experience and ability to translate technical jargon to layman’s language made it easy for us to understand. I can now protect myself while doing my work online.
