Advocacy Work of Choice: HUMAN RIGHTS in CHINA

Our Mission and Approach

Founded by Chinese students and scholars in March 1989, Human Rights in China (HRIC) is an international, Chinese, non-governmental organization with a mission to promote international human rights and advance the institutional protection of these rights in the People’s Republic of China (China). HRIC’s board and staff include Chinese, North American, and European individuals devoted to fostering greater space for democratic reforms and social justice.

HRIC’s approach is a long-term process of engaging multiple international actors, including the media, governments, corporations, various United Nations bodies, and other multilateral organizations. HRIC also aims to maximize and leverage its resources by collaborating with other local, regional, and international NGOs.

HRIC’s education, research, and advocacy strategies are guided by three key objectives:

* Supporting the work of local civil society groups to promote the process of economic, administrative, and legal reforms;

* Generating international pressure for social change through monitoring to ensure accountability, transparency, and compliance with the Chinese government’s international human rights obligations; and

* Strengthening international human rights frameworks and facilitating international cooperation by working with other non-governmental organizations, the UN, and other multilateral and bilateral organizations, national governments, and donors.
