A series of portraits entitled Meine Geschichte, mein Recht (My story, my right) by Schutzfaktor M is currently touring Switzerland. The exhibition deals with human rights and draws attention to the fact that these are by no means a given even in Switzerland. Nine people speak out about what it means to have one’s basic rights violated and how they are fighting for their rights. The speakers include a victim of administrative detention. 

«Schutzfaktor M – Menschenrechte schützen uns» (Schutzfaktor M – Human rights protect us) is the name of a public awareness campaign launched by the association Dialog EMRK (Dialogue ECHR). The association has been campaigning for full protection of human rights in Switzerland since 2014.
