Their Mission
Protection International’s contribution to the world is to support human rights defenders (HRDs) through comprehensive protection programmes.

They carry out targeted advocacy so that those who have the duty to protect HRDs fulfill their obligations, and work to convince other individuals and institutions with a stake in the protection of HRDs to maximize their positive contribution. Protection International always works in partnership with defenders.
