Partner Organisations

INTERIGHTS is committed to working with our partners to develop and pursue strategic litigation and improve human rights compliance throughout the world. Without our partners we would not be able to function properly and deliver the change we all seek.

Our partnerships over the years have entailed collaboration with organisations, human rights lawyers and human rights bodies. We always seek to work in partnership with local human rights activists and human rights defenders as this leads to increased capacity locally and, critically, makes our own work better informed and linked to the real human rights issues on the ground. We take pride in our partnership approach and make special effort to create space for discussion and joint decisions on casework or capacity developing strategies. Beyond litigation partnerships, we have also worked in partnership on capacity developing, institution building, and publications.
