News: 2023 Edition of HRW's World Report

The latest edition of Human Rights Watch's annual human rights survey, World Report 2023: Events of 2022, was launched today (12 Jan. 2023). It provides a summary of the human rights situation in nearly 100 countries and territories around the world. The introductory essay is entitled "A New Model for Global Leadership on Human Rights."

The release of the report was accompanied by an extensive series of news releases highlighting issues in specific countries and regions; see, e.g., "EU: Ukraine Response Shows Principled Approach Possible," "Human Rights Watch Issues Damning Verdict for UK," and "Malaysia: Elections Cap Year of Upheaval - New Government Should Protect Free Speech, Refugees, LGBT People," among many others.

Readers can download the entire report or browse by individual country on the companion web site. Abridged versions are offered in multiple languages. Previous editions of the World Report can be found here.

Finally, HRW also recently posted an announcement that it is seeking a new Executive Director. More details are available here. The position is open until filled.
