Defenders of the Land, Territory and Environment in Honduras and Guatemala

This Amnesty International report examines the situation faced by defenders of the land, territory and environment in Honduras and Guatemala. It is the first in a series of reports to be published on this group of defenders in several countries in the Americas. Human rights defenders are people who, individually or collectively, take action to defend, protect or promote human rights using non-violent means. They can operate at different levels and in different contexts, from the local to the national or international level.
