I think PBI’s work is very important. It is necessary to make visible and accompany the people who give their lives to have better possibilities of existence. On the other hand, I love knowing that there are other ways of being able to work

I see PBI’s work as a way of being able to help, without being patronizing, but very conscious of my privileged position

During my first field experience, I met people who remain very important in my life to this day. PBI’s work is important because of the solidarity it embodies

PBI has been a fundamental work experience in my path, it has allowed me to be trained in security related issues and it was a unique life experience. After PBI I began to collaborate with a local organization in Oaxaca with which I have now been working for 9 years.

It allowed me to get to know a very well planned and organized way of working as a team and network, and gave me the opportunity to meet extraordinary people and communities (defenders)

PBI’s work is fundamental because it represents international solidarity with human rights defenders and a commitment to change the world. PBI offers an opportunity to grow as a person, in contact with human rights defenders who fight for human rights despite the risks they face, and because of the horizontal organizational structure that forces greater reflection and greater responsibility from each of its members

Opening spaces of peace for women and men defenders seems to me necessary and urgent, they are the last bastion of civilization in this world.

Working with PBI made me change my way of seeing the world and also labor organizations. I was very inspired by the horizontality of the organization and the non-violent communication it promotes, always based on love
