The Defense Institute (in Portuguese: "Instituto Defesa") is a non-governmental, nonprofit organization in Brazil created in 2013,[1] with the main objective of guaranteeing citizens the inalienable right to keep and bear arms.
Overview
The Defense Institute was created in response to the government's failure to comply with the popular will expressed in the result of the 2005 referendum, which rejected the proposal to restrict access to the right to keep and bear arms.[2]
Actions
In 2016, the Defense Institute, in partnership with the IMBEL ("Brazilian Military Material Industry"), started producing videos of that company's guns.[3]
On 28 and 29 September 2019, the Defense Institute organized and promoted the "IV Regional Meeting of the DEFESA Institute", in the city of Salvador, Bahia.[4]
On 5 October 2019, the Defense Institute organized and promoted the "I Meeting of the DEFESA Institute in PARANÁ", in the city of Quatro Barras, Paraná.[5]
The Defense Institute has been promoting and conducting training courses and events related to the subject of self-defense.[6]
The Defense Institute has also been promoting political actions and has been advocating since 2011 the commercialization of firearms without barriers imposed by the State.[7]
On 15 October 2020, the Defense Institute, in partnership with the shooting club "Tactical Shoot", promoted the 1st SHOOTING OPEN TOURNAMENT, in the city of Botucatu, São Paulo.[8]
