Defenders Protection

Honoured to attend the @NBSBreakingNews Partners’ Breakfast!

We explored branding and how media partners can help shape initiatives from the first idea through to rollout. Thank you, NBS, for bringing us together.

What would it take for more women to earn fairly, own land and grow businesses that build lasting wealth?

Defenders Protection Initiative (DPI) joined more than 400 delegates at the 9th Annual Women Human Rights Defenders Conference, hosted by Phenomenal Women Global in partnership with the Human Rights Centre Uganda.

Under the theme “From Survival to Wealth Generation: Advancing Economic Justice for Women,” participants discussed the changes needed to close pay gaps, strengthen women’s land rights and help women-led businesses grow.

At DPI, we see economic security as part of holistic protection. When women human rights defenders can sustain their livelihoods and access the resources they need, they are better positioned to continue their work and make decisions on their own terms.

Thank you to @pwomenuganda and the @HRCUG for bringing us together for this conversation.
