Last weekend, Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 May, an editatona was developed about human rights defenders at the headquarters of Amnesty International from Madrid. Volunteers of the NGO, not only in Spain but in more than 20 countries, were organized with the aim of giving visibility to these women. This world marathon has been called Brave:Edit Wikiesfera was with the compañeras of Madrid training and helping them with the publication of these biographies.


> Results

It was a couple of days of great intensity and a lot of work but we ended with the satisfaction of having made visible many women who fight daily in the defense of human rights around the world. Although we do not yet have the results of the other countries involved in the activity, at the meeting held in Madrid we created and translated these biographies.
