The goal of the training was to build the capacity of project partners to document human rights violations of LGBT people according to international standards and advocate effectively on LGBT issues on a national level.
During the training the participants have learned the main concepts, principles and methods of monitoring and documentation of human rights violations and different steps in advocacy planning. Furthermore, they were guided, through practical exercises, to develop monitoring and advocacy plans for their organizations.
