The European Partnership for Democracy and an informal coalition* of Civil Society Organisations led by Civil Society Europe and the European Civic Forum present the Mapping paper and the Options paper for a Protection Mechanism for Human Rights Defenders and Civil Society Organisations in Europe.
The papers aim to map the existing protection landscape and, based on the gaps and challenges, propose ways to build a stronger ecosystem for the protection of human rights defenders (HRDs) and civil society organisations (CSOs).
