Párrafo- Paragraph text
- Lastly, over the course of his discussions with persons on the ground, the Special Rapporteur came to realize that his reports on communications were largely passing unnoticed and were seldom used by defenders and the various stakeholders involved in protecting them. The Special Rapporteur therefore plans to take steps to ensure that these reports, whose contents are highly instructive, are made more accessible to key stakeholders. To that end, he intends to give thought to the question of how to improve the centralization of information by country and to facilitate the use of the information contained in the reports. The Peruvian defender César Estrada stated that: Between 2011 and 2015, my family and I lived through a very difficult period. Despite the protective measures made available by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, which were not applied, we were constantly targeted by threats, murder attempts and repression. It was then that I made contact with Michel Forst and my situation became known well beyond my own country. His work as Special Rapporteur is extremely important for all defenders around the world.
