Self-help groups, legal protection, strengthening of civil society and of democratic institutions, advocacy and awareness campaigns on rights. These are but a handful of the activities we carry out to support the rights of women, children, disabled people, refugees, migrants and other subjects at risk of exclusion all over the world.
The safeguarding of human rights drives all our interventions and the specific initiatives put into practice have reached 7.14 million people in the last year.
The protection of children's rights has taken place in continuity with the education programmes, with a particular attention to the inclusion of boys and girls with disabilities. The activities to protect the rights of refugees and migrants were set up in the countries of origin, transit and destination of the migratory flows.
We also applied the community protection methodology called CPA - Community Protection Approach - for the analysis of vulnerability and community response.
Through our advocacy and awareness campaigns, 97 initiatives were organised, involving local actors and policy makers. We involved 11,600 operators and activists in over 480 teams, launched 390 awareness-raising campaigns reaching 2,172,267 people and consolidated the skills of 355 local associations, groups and networks.
