Protection and Resource Hub

Protection database


This database is a living resource designed to help human rights defenders, civil society organisations, and their supporters find protection, support, and practical tools across Europe. It includes information on organisations providing holistic protection as well as resources, guides, and toolkits that can help civil society organisations (CSOs) and human rights defenders (HRDs) at risk.

The organisations and resources have been collected by the European Civic Forum and its partners. Please note that while we try to keep the information accurate, not all resources are updated in real time. This is a living repository of information, services and resources, and we regularly review to ensure it remains relevant and useful.
