We can make a risk analysis together to sort out the risks to your work, life, or health and which to prioritise. We give advice on risk mitigation or help you reduce the risks in different ways. We can offer shorter training or help you contact authorities. If you have needs connected to police reports or personal protection we can help you contact the police. We offer certain legal advice connected to your safety and security. We also provide you with other free resources or contacts with other support.
Who gets help and support from the Security Help Desk?
If you are an opinion leader and a human rights defender based in Sweden, who lack your own resources for your preventive and reactive security work, you are very welcome to contact us. We will schedule a first call where we ask you about your situation, to find out if and how we can support you.
