Summary/Abstract: In January 2020, the Center for Cultural Decontamination (CZKD) began work on the implementation of activities within the project Mapping and Curating Emergent HRD Protection Strategies, with the support of the Delegation of the European Union to Serbia. As part of this initiative, CZKD has identified, documented and analyzed numerous strategies and mechanisms that human rights defenders in the Republic of Serbia use to respond to the many pressures and threats they face in their work. Activism within their communities in relation to the social, political and legal consequences of these actions, as well as media coverage of them, was also considered. Then, the impact and consequences of the mentioned pressures on the Human rights defenders, as well as their own assessment of the effectiveness of these protection strategies. Although the research was originally planned to be conducted in the field and within the communities where Human rights defenders work and operate, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in 2020 CZKD was forced to conduct interviews online.
