Since 1978, Human Rights Watch has been one of the world’s leading independent organizations dedicated to defending and protecting human rights. Their work spans across five continents, reporting human rights violations and giving a voice to the oppressed and holding the abusers accountable.
Human Rights Watch investigates and reports on abuses happening in all corners of the world. They are roughly 550 plus people of 70-plus nationalities who are country experts, lawyers, journalists, and others who work to protect the most at risk, from vulnerable minorities and civilians in wartime, to refugees and children in need. They direct our advocacy towards governments, armed groups and businesses, to press for change and enforce their laws, policies and practices.
Human Rights Watch is a nonprofit, non-governmental human rights organization . To ensure their independence, they refuse government funding and carefully review all donations to ensure that they are consistent with their policies, mission, and values. Human Rights Watch partners with organizations large and small across the globe to protect embattled activists and to help hold abusers to account and bring justice to victims. All efforts are around their commitment to justice, dignity, compassion, and equity.
Human Rights Watch donors are compassionate humanitarians and dedicated to supporting those who are at risk. Donors are engaged and socially active in their communities. Primarily female, Human Rights Watch donors support a variety of non-profits in areas that include Humanitarian, Health/Disease, Societal Benefit, Human Services and Cultural.
