Celebrating the International Day for Women Human Rights Defenders with the launch of our report “Hope and Resistance Go Together - The State of Women Human Rights Defenders”. Proud to have been part of the team producing this report that sheds light on the growing anti-gender movement globally and shows a concerning increase in harassments and threats against women’s and queer rights activists, affecting 75% of respondents and their organisations. The activists tell us how family members are increasingly affected, with one in three respondents reporting incidents against their families. Threats and harassments against activists are primarily driven by government and authorities, reflecting the global shift towards authoritarianism. Anti-gender movements, traditional and religious actors, and far-right groups also play a significant role in instigating this wave of harassment. The report is based on survey responses from 458 activists from 67 countries globally, and 25 in-depth interviews. Read the report here: https://lnkd.in/dmP8SMaq
