PBI’s work is important because it creates the right spaces for human rights defenders to fight with dignity for the causes they defend
Antonio Pérez

I am absolutely convinced of the good work of PBI and of the need for the persistence of non-violent work for the respect of human rights and the defense of the different struggles. I also respect the different organizations accompanied by PBI

PBI has given me the opportunity to cross the path of people who defend Life. And now that I am at a moment in my life when I think I have to choose between believing and not believing, having crossed their paths gives me the possibility to choose: I do want to believe.

PBI provided me with knowledge in human rights and protection of human rights defenders that no other organization has given me. It has allowed me to grow intellectually and humanely, and to meet people and social movements that have enriched me greatly. Working in an international team also gave me a lot of humility and resilience, as I learned to work in a team on a daily basis.
