Human Rights Watch (HRW) is an international non-governmental organization that conducts research and advocacy on human rights. HRW headquarters are in New York City with offices in Amsterdam, Beirut, Berlin, Brussels, Chicago, Geneva, Johannesburg, London, Los Angeles, Moscow, Nairobi, Paris, San Francisco, Sydney, Tokyo, Toronto, Washington, D.C., and Zurich.
As of June 2011, the organization’s annual expenses totaled $50.6 million.
Human Rights Watch was founded as a private American NGO in 1978, under the name Helsinki Watch, to monitor the former Soviet Union's compliance with the Helsinki Accords. Helsinki Watch adopted a practice of publicly "naming and shaming" abusive governments through media coverage and through direct exchanges with policymakers. By shining the international spotlight on human rights violations in the Soviet Union and its European partners, Helsinki Watch contributed to the democratic transformations of the region in the late 1980s.
Americas Watch was founded in 1981 while bloody civil wars engulfed Central America. Relying on extensive on-the-ground fact-finding, Americas Watch not only addressed perceived abuses by government forces but also applied international humanitarian law to investigate and expose war crimes by rebel groups. In addition to raising its concerns in the affected countries, Americas Watch also examined the role played by foreign governments, particularly the United States government, in providing military and political support to abusive regimes.

Human Rights Watch raised concerns that there is a growing “culture of fear” in Malaysia in a 40-page report released on Thursday.
“People are kept in pens like animals,” said Human Rights Watch's Emergencies Director Peter Bouckaert, blasting the Hungarian government's handling of the refugee crisis while visiting a temporary holding facility at the border town of Röszke.

The massive enforcement of laws criminalizing personal drug use and possession in the United States causes devastating harm. Enforcement ruins individual and family lives, discriminates against people of color, and undermines public health. The federal and state governments should decriminalize the personal use and possession of illicit drugs. https://www.hrw.org/news/2016/10/12/us-disastrous-toll-criminalizing-drug-use The long-term consequences can separate families; exclude people from job opportunities, welfare assistance, public housing, and voting; and expose them to discrimination and stigma for a lifetime. While more people are arrested for simple drug possession in the US than for any other crime, mainstream discussions of criminal justice reform rarely question whether drug use s...
Αφιερωμένο...!! Era settembre ed il sole ci ha visti baciare con il fiatone correvi giocando con me un sassolino nell'acqua faceva rumore il desiderio di stare per sempre con te. Στην αμμουδιά περπατούσαμε κάθε πρωί, όνειρα έκανα δίπλα σου για τη ζωή. Τώρα είμαι μόνη κι ο χρόνος κυλάει αργά, βγαίνω στους δρόμους ξορκίζοντας τη μοναξιά. Πες μου πώς; Η ματιά σου που ήταν σαν φλόγα που πάγωσε. Πώς; Τ' άγγιγμά σου τις νύχτες στο σώμα μου πόνος κρυφός. Πες μου πώς; Σε ρωτάω. Ποιος μου πήρε το όνειρο κι έφυγε μαζί σου. Ποιος; Θα σ' αγαπώ ώσπου ο χρόνος να τελειώσει και θα 'μαι εδώ να σ' αγκαλιάζω όταν νυχτώνει. Κοίτα την ώρα που περνάει, πόσο αλλάζεις γίνεσαι ανάμνηση... Γίνεσαι κρύο και αέρας που παγώνει όταν το βλέμμα στη ματιά σου χαμηλώνει. Γίνεσαι χιόνι που ...

It will discuss how the World Bank’s mission and the new Sustainable Development Goals can be leveraged to keep the space for civil society and media from closing further.

http://www.democracynow.org - Human Rights Watch, one of the world's largest and most influential human rights organizations, is facing an unusual amount of public criticism. Two Nobel Peace Prize laureates, Adolfo Pérez Esquivel and Mairead Maguire, and a group of over 100 scholars have written an open letter criticizing what they describe as a revolving door with the U.S. government that impacts HRW''s work in certain countries, including Venezuela. The letter urges HRW to bar those who have crafted or executed U.S. foreign policy from serving as staff, advisors or board members. Human Rights Watch Executive Director Kenneth Roth has defended his organization's independence, responding: "We are careful to ensure that prior affiliations do not affect the impartiality of Human Rights Watch...

Time is not a friend of mine*
It forces me to wait.
For symbols of reality
Inscriptions of my faith
I can't have a laughter now
But you may (?) choke.
That must be inside your day
Uncertain day I spoke.
Walk with me, my children
Walk into the sea.
I can give no reason
For you to follow me.
I come with thou conscience
And I don't have a name.
Those crazy little voices
Talk to me and say ...
Bring me the rage ... the rage. (2x)
Made you slip on why the rage
Is it too dark to see?
The mental bars of fearful thoughts
And darkened sanity.
Keep in mind that knotted heart
For feelings can be (?).
With all hope you demonstrate
As opposed to watch you sink.
Bring me the ...
