notebook: Testing for Discrimination: Identifying and Prosecuting Human Rights Abuses

In this notebook we learn about how an organization in Hungary tests for and documents incidences of systematic discrimination against a disenfranchised population.  When an instance of discrimination is reported, this organization will send out testers find out whether or not this discrimination was systematic and then document their findings.

notebook: Making the Global Local: Applying Global Agreements to Local Enforcement of Human Rights Laws

In the human rights field there is often a gap between local human rights abuses and the international laws and treaties that are meant to prevent these abuses.  The League of Human Rights Advocates in Slovakia recruits members of a disenfranchised population and trains them to become human rights monitors.  These monitors watch for human rights abuses in their own locality and then translate international human rights laws and apply them to their local situations.
