This project promotes equality and the enjoyment of fundamental human rights including the right to participate in democratic processes for marginalized communities in Belarus, with a focus on diverse groups of women/girls.

Project activities include: (1) undertaking and communicating summaries of public opinion polls in English and Russian; (2) producing research on gender and human rights; (3) convening policy roundtables including with embassy representatives; (4) briefing representatives of international governments, organizations and donors, and briefing Belarusian media/ NGOs/ political actors; and (5) producing Chatham House ‘expert comments’ and multimedia and social media products.
