"The protection I received from Peace Brigades International saved my life."
Eloyda Mejía, Association of Friends of Lake Izabal (ASALI)

Project work centers on:

Protective accompaniment
Peace Building/Peace Education
Building Support Networks
Raising the profile of those we accompany
Political analysis and spreading on-the-ground information
