From arbitrary arrests to gender-based violence and denial of fair trials — these are not isolated incidents.
We’re calling on governments to uphold international human rights obligations and protect women defenders everywhere.

Upholding international human rights standards is not optional. We sincerely hope that this joint contribution will gather sufficient attention to the cases reviewed.
