For some issue areas, being an advocate means putting yourself in harm’s way. For example, on the topic of land use, the global statistics are staggering: according to a recent Global Witness report, 116 environmental activists were killed in 2014, most of them representatives of indigenous groups. Countless others were threatened, imprisoned, or had their rights repressed. Global Witness can inform you of the risks associated with a particular issue area or geography.
