Asian Human Rights Commission

About Asian Human Rights Commission Android App

The AHRC free application gives you the latest platform to stay in touch with human rights news in the Asian region. Our statements, press releases and urgent appeals are being updated regularly to reflect the latest human rights violations and challenges in countries including Bangladesh, Burma, India, Indonesia, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea, Sri Lanka and Thailand. The AHRC is a regional human rights organization working on individual human rights cases in each of these countries and assists victims in their attempts to seek redress through their domestic legal systems, despite the difficulties encountered in each context. Our work aims to enable the realization of rights in a region that remains blighted by crippled institutions of the rule of law, which are enabling systemic impunity for the gamut of grave human rights violations, including torture, forced disappearances, extra-judicial killings, attacks on and discrimination against minorities, women and human rights defenders, as well as widespread violations of a range of other political, economic and social rights, including the right to food. We seek to protect and promote human rights by monitoring, investigating, advocating, and taking solidarity actions.
