Digital Protection Accompaniment
We provide a tailored long-term programme as a response to the trend of “box-checking” digital security trainings for human rights defenders.

DDP’s Digital Protection Accompaniment consists on a holistic programme of activities, including sustainable responses to threats, facilitation, and community building within the broader ecosystem of support to human rights defenders under digital threats.
Digital Protection Accompaniments in 2024
In 2024, we conducted 21 accompaniments.

Resilience
The Covid-19 crisis confronted us with the need to adapt quickly to the new demands of the context.
Dual Approach
Face-to-face accompaniment needs to be complemented with online follow-up that is just as close.
Off-boarding
The way in which we conclude the process and organisations take on their own protection continues to be a challenge.
Mentorship
The support of the Digital Protection Leads is key to strengthen the performance of the Digital Protection Facilitators.
