Using Science as a Tool to Protect Human Rights

The Science for Human Rights (SHR) project leverages technological and scientific progress for human rights advocacy and campaigning. We currently focus on utilizing geospatial technologies like satellite imagery for human rights monitoring and conflict prevention. These new tools allow us to gain access to previously inaccessible conflict zones, provide compelling visual evidence and present information in a new and engaging way, all of which assists our activists in their campaigning efforts.
