Asian HRDs Portal

The Asian HRDs Portal tracks threats, harassment and violence committed against human rights defenders (HRDs).

The Asian HRDs Portal is a database that tracks threats, harassment and violence committed against human rights defenders (HRDs) across Asia, as well as curates resources that support their protection. It was created by FORUM-ASIA with technical support from HURIDOCS.

The portal contains files for more than 3,400 attacks since 2005 and features a submission form so that anyone can alert the FORUM-ASIA team to an emerging case. It also compiles monthly statistics on cases by country, the human right defender’s area of focus, and the nature of their right or freedom violated.
