THEMATIC PANEL
Protecting civic space and human rights defenders

Democracy only thrives with a vibrant civil society. Yet, civil society organisations face constant threats and attacks. This panel will explore how we can protect and strengthen civic space across the EU, empower human rights defenders and develop a human rights culture. It will also look into strategies for investing in human rights education and engaging young people.
