Our work in Belarus

Since the rigged presidential election in 2020, Belarus has been experiencing unprecedented repression. Libereco has been working with local partners to promote human rights in Belarus since 2009. We are one of only a few NGOs providing comprehensive support to victims of political persecution in Belarus, including access to medical treatment, legal counselling, and psycho-social support.

As part of our solidarity campaign #WeStandBYyou, hundreds of European parliamentarians have already taken on godparenthoods for political prisoners. Because of our work, Alexander Lukashenko’s autocratic regime has classified our Instagram and X accounts as “extremist”.
