About Peace Brigades International (UK)
Peace Brigades International (UK) is a dedicated non-governmental organization committed to the protection of human rights defenders and the promotion of peace worldwide. Established in the UK, we work tirelessly to provide support and solidarity to individuals and communities facing violence and oppression due to their advocacy for human rights.
Our core mission is to create a safer environment for those who stand up for justice, often at great personal risk. We achieve this through a variety of initiatives, including international protective accompaniment, training programs, and advocacy efforts aimed at raising awareness about human rights issues.
We believe in the power of grassroots movements and the importance of local voices in the fight for justice. Our teams are composed of trained volunteers who work closely with local organizations to ensure that our support is relevant and effective.
In addition to our protective work, we engage in educational outreach to inform the public about the challenges faced by human rights defenders globally. We aim to foster a culture of respect for human rights and encourage active participation in advocacy efforts.
Peace Brigades International (UK) operates on the principles of non-violence, solidarity, and respect for diversity. We are committed to working collaboratively with various stakeholders, including governments, civil society organizations, and international bodies, to promote a more just and peaceful world.
Join us in our mission to protect those who protect others. Together, we can make a difference and contribute to a future where human rights are universally respected.
