Protection Approaches

Who we are

Protection Approaches is a charity founded in 2014 to confront and prevent identity-based violence here in the UK and around the world. We work with those who make and shape decisions in order to strengthen prediction, prevention, and protection approaches to identity-based violence.

Our values

• Justice is at the heart of human dignity and rights
• Identity-based violence comes in many forms, each rooted in the same set  of causes
• Identifying and understanding what drives identity-based violence is central  to preventing it
• Building strong, resilient, and inclusive societies requires challenging  structural discrimination and inequality
• We have a collective and individual responsibility to protect those at risk of  violence
• Governments have a fundamental duty to challenge and prevent identity based violence no matter where it occurs or how it manifests

As a small but growing organisation there is considerable potential for new staff members to develop and lead new projects, build a personal profile and pursue relevant avenues of personal professional development.
