UNITED NATIONS: Despite their contribution to social justice, civil society organisations came under “serious attack” in 109 countries in 2015, according to a new report published by CIVICUS Monday.

“Civil society freedoms of expression, association and peaceful assembly have been under serious attack in 109 countries around the world in 2015 alone,” said Mandeep Tiwana, Head of Policy and Analysis at CIVICUS, an international organisation representing civil society organisations, at a press conference to launch the report.

Civil society organisations, are organisations outside of governments and businesses which represent the interests of civilians. Often they exist to further the rights of disadvantaged people within society, such as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex (LGBTI) people, people with disabilities, or Indigenous peoples.

However these groups are often inherently vulnerable, even when working together as civil society organisations.
