ABOUT APROFORT

The general objective is to provide support, protection and capacity building to civil society activists and organizations working in the promotion of human rights and good governance.

This will be measured by the achievement of three primary results:

  • The abolition of the death penalty.
  • The effective protection of activists, organisations, and vulnerable minority groups.
  • Increased compliance with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and Human Rights.

An improvement in human rights and governance in the country will come through the protection of activists, women and LGBTQI+ members, as well as the strengthening of civil society in both areas. A stronger civil society can hold the government accountable and push for reforms.
