Women human rights defenders - read PBI's submission to the Conservative Human Rights Commission

Women human rights defenders (WHRDs) like their male counterparts work to protect a wide range of rights: civil and political rights and economic, social and cultural rights, as well as to defend and promote women’s rights. WHRDs often experience threats because of their gender and are targeted because of who they are not just because of what they do.
