The Power of presence

"We are the eyes of the world."

In a world where speaking the truth can be a death sentence, Peace Brigades International provides a life-saving shield, standing shoulder to shoulder with human rights defenders. This film explores our mission to support, protect and empower human rights defenders through unarmed accompaniment.

From environmental activists to Indigenous leaders and women human rights defenders, we stand in solidarity with those on the front lines of the world’s most pressing struggles so they can make lasting change.
