About the manual

The integrated security workshop came about as a result of the work that has been done both internationally and by different organisations to highlight the security situation for human rights defenders, focusing on women. To learn more about the background and about the women who made it possible please read more here. You will also find more information about the organisations behind the concept as well as additional reading that might be helpful (bearing in mind the list is from 2011) and some other background material.

Besides this section, the manual is divided into four parts:

• Integrated security concept
• Facilitation method
• Exercies
• Detailed sessions
