Cooperation policy
Civil Rights Defenders cooperates with local human rights organisations in the countries where we are active. Our partners are human rights defenders who morally, financially and explicitly promote the work for human rights.
We only collaborate with non-governmental, religiously and politically independent organisations who do not advocate nor resort to violence, and who work to defend people’s civil and political rights. This means that the statutes, activities and leading representatives of the organisations shall aim for the same goals as we. We always practice zero tolerance as regards to financial or other irregularities.
Principally, we work only with organisations, but in countries that do not allow these kinds of organisations, or otherwise because of the situation in the country, we may cooperate with individuals aiming at building up an organisational structure.
All our partners work on a non-profit basis. Occasionally we make exceptions for independent media companies who are in need of support to be able to function at all in totalitarian and non-democratic environments.
