Here's what they say about themselves;


Human Rights Watch is dedicated to protecting the human rights of people
around the world.

We stand with victims and activists to prevent discrimination, to uphold
political freedom, to protect people from inhumane conduct in wartime, and
to bring offenders to justice.

We investigate and expose human rights violations and hold abusers
accountable.

We challenge governments and those who hold power to end abusive practices
and respect international human rights law.

We enlist the public and the international community to support the cause of
human rights for all.

Human Rights Watch is an independent, nongovernmental organization,
supported by contributions from private individuals and foundations
worldwide. It accepts no government funds, directly or indirectly.
