The  Defenders’ Wellbeing Collective aims to facilitate a unique space for leaders of grassroots, community, and survivor-led human rights organizations globally to reflect, experiment, share, and learn together about how best to support greater wellbeing and resilience within their organizations. The collective will serve as an environment for reflection, innovation, and honest exchanges, in which human rights leaders can have the flexibility to learn, make mistakes, iterate, and deepen their inner wellbeing and organizational practices in dialogue with each other. We propose to bring together an initial group of 20-25 leaders from grassroots, community, and survivor-led organizations. This can include, but is not limited to, individuals working to advance racial justice, indigenous rights, LGBTQI+ rights, the rights of immigrants and refugees, the rights of incarcerated persons, the rights of persons with disabilities, the rights of religious minorities, survivor-led feminist organizations etc.

The  Defenders’ Wellbeing Collective will take place over two years. During this time, participants will:
- Join quarterly remote meetings;
- Participate in an in-person convening (COVID-19 permitting);
- Receive support to engage in, pilot, and research programs for wellbeing and resilience within the organizations where they are working; and
- Receive access to resources around wellbeing for their organizations. Additionally, we will aim to conduct research with the collective, to use this space as a means to advance broader learning for the human rights community as a whole.
The program will be offered in English, French and Spanish.
