The Defender Magazine that evolved from a Human Rights journal is replete with in depth, timely, substantive articles on human rights and democratization. With a thematic approach, the magazine interrogates a current theme and makes diverse opinions heard on the subject not only on Uganda but also addresses illuminating experiences from other countries as well.
The topics discussed in the magazine cut across the related issues of the core agenda of FHRI’s programme including themes like peace, justice, civic duties and obligations, constitutionalism, governance, transparency and accountability, domestic violence, torture, death penalty, democracy, minority groups, environmental rights, employment, corruption, women, children, disability, elections and the electoral process, land issues, gender related topics, freedom of expression and association including the media, the fate of political organizations in Uganda, internally displaced persons, refugees, ethnicity etc which are all human rights and democratic related. The magazine also encompasses issues which include FHRI's wide-ranging activities and upcoming human rights and democracy events.
