WILPF’s Section in Colombia, LIMPAL Colombia, has recently released the report titled Sintonías Corporales (Bodily Harmonies), which looks at the mental health and psychosocial issues of women human rights leaders in Colombia.
Women human rights defenders continue to be targeted and murdered in Colombia. In particular, people who stand up for women’s rights, small farmers, or Afro-Colombian and indigenous populations find themselves in great danger. This indisputably places a huge burden on their mental health.
