Human Rights Database

In July 2003, HURIDOCS launched the pilot version of HURISEARCH, a tool for searching human rights information on the Web, http://www.hurisearch.org. HURISEARCH allows searching sites of non-governmental human rights organisations in 58 different languages, including many European languages but also others such as Arabic, Chinese, Farsi, Swahili and Vietnamese. The hardware for HURISEARCH has recently been expanded, and it now includes over 1300 sites of human rights NGOs. Suggestions to include additional sites are welcome.
