New reference tool for women human rights defenders
AWID has compiled a useful reference tool
for women human rights defenders, in collaboration with the Women Human Rights
Defenders International Coalition.
The
compilation lists research materials dealing with the security and protection
of defenders, resources that women activists can consult concerning their
wellbeing and self-care, manuals dealing with how to document and monitor
violations of women’s rights, as well as manuals on the rights and mechanisms
available to women human rights defenders at risk. The list also references
materials that address specific themes particularly relevant to women
defenders, such as sexual orientation, religious fundamentalisms and conflict.
