HURIDOCS held a workshop in Indonesia last August to highlight the power of collective work for the documentation of human rights violations during emergent crises. The workshop brought together 12 participants representing various community organisations from six different countries in the Asia Pacific region: Bangladesh, Burma, Indonesia, Philippines, Sri Lanka, and West Papua.
A Mexican collective of women related to disappeared persons is transforming their pain into a driving force to create awareness, advocacy and demand for social change in a country where a person disappears every hour.
We had the privilege of warmly welcoming Danna Ingleton, our new Executive Director, while bidding a fond farewell to Friedhelm Weinberg and Gisella Reina.
HURIDOCS will be actively present at RightsCon Costa Rica, with a thought-provoking session on the Future of Human Rights Documentation and a workshop on data modelling for human rights documentation.
HURIDOCS hosted a series of discussions on the Events Methodology and how it directly and indirectly shaped human rights documentation initiatives across the globe.
