THRDC is a national coalition established in 2010 to protect, empower, and support Human Rights Defenders (HRDs) across Tanzania. Formed in response to increasing threats, harassment, and repression against HRDs, THRDC fills a critical gap by providing specialized protection services that were previously unavailable. Registered in 2012 under Tanzanian law, THRDC has grown from 14 founding organizations to over 300 member organizations across Mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar. More than 70% of its members joined due to insufficient protection in their human rights work, highlighting the urgent need for THRDC’s interventions. THRDC works to ensure HRDs can operate safely and effectively through protection and security management, emergency support, legal aid, advocacy, capacity building, and public engagement. Its work aligns with the **1998 UN Declaration on Human Rights Defenders and contributes to the expansion of civic space in Tanzania. Vision: A free and secure working environment for Human Rights Defenders in Tanzania.

Guided by empathy, integrity, professionalism, transparency, and accountability, THRDC remains a trusted national platform for defending those who defend human rights.
