Human Rights Watch defends the rights of people worldwide. We scrupulously investigate abuses, expose the facts widely, and pressure those with power to respect rights and secure justice. Human Rights Watch is an independent, international organisation that works as part of a vibrant movement to uphold human dignity and advance the cause of human rights for all. Our researchers report first-hand on over 90 countries around the globe. They travel wherever they must go to gather credible information, whether in war zones, areas under heavy surveillance, or other hostile environments.

Our Australian office shines a spotlight on human rights issues in the Asia-Pacific region and encourages the Australian government to promote human rights.
