The Women Human Rights Defenders International Coalition’s 2016 publication, Gendering Documentation: A Manual For and About Women Human Rights Defenders, highlights the activism of women human rights defenders (WHRDs) from around the world and the violence they face as a result of their work. The manual aims to utilize feminist documentation as a methodology for politically-motivated storytelling, centering women’s experiences defending human rights at the same time their own are blatantly violated. Gendering Documentation is rooted in gender analysis to present well-informed critiques of unjust social systems and uplift the women who fight to dismantle them.
