Task Force Nyx is a women-founded, women-led organization dedicated to supporting global human rights defenders in their activism and on their journeys to safety. We amplify the voices and lived experiences of defenders, particularly women and members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and provide emergency humanitarian support and trauma-informed case management to the world’s most at-risk protesters, human rights defenders, and their families.
Following our inception during the fall of Kabul, we have expanded our expertise to include Central Asia, East Africa, and additional priority regions for global security and human rights. We aim to enhance and elevate standard setting for the efficient processing of asylum cases and to identify and advocate for nimble protection pathways for those undertaking the crucial work of women’s and human rights activism.
