About PBI Country Groups

International volunteers accompanying those threatened for defending human rights would have limited effect without an international support network that can deter violence.

PBI country groups:

  • find and prepare field volunteers
  • build support networks to respond to threats
  • fundraise
  • raise the profile of human rights defenders and PBI
  • participate in wider peace and human rights forums
  • support volunteers on their return

Get involved with a local Country Group

Many countries do not have an official PBI Country Group but have small networks of individuals that may be able to help. If You are interested in starting a local group please contact us.

What they say

"...I, too would like to pay tribute to the work of Peace Brigades International and to the bravery of the volunteers. Through their work, they are able to provide the sort of protection in Choco, Urabá and elsewhere that the armed forces cannot provide."
Tony Lloyd (Ex-Minister of State, Foreign and Commonwealth Office, British Government
