We stand with all defenders

We provide protection, support and recognition to local human rights defenders who work in areas of repression and conflict and have requested our support.

Volunteer with PBI

Our volunteers come from many different countries and backgrounds. What these volunteers share is a strong commitment to nonviolence and a belief in the contribution that all of us can make to creating a more peaceful and just world.

The People We Support

In contexts where people and communities are subject to violent conflict, intimidation or repression, human rights defenders can be key agents for resistance and change. PBI exists to support and protect these courageous people.

Where we work

Since 1981, Peace Brigades International has worked in some of the most conflict-affected contexts. On request, our teams provide protection, recognition and support to human rights defenders.

"Everyone has the right, individually and in association with others, to promote and to strive for the protection and realisation of human rights and fundamental freedoms at the national and international levels."
Article 1, UN Declaration on human rights defenders, adopted in 1998.
