Budget monitoring allowed them to analyze how the government implements and allocates budgets to fulfill its legal obligation to help realize human rights.
In this notebook, theatre is used to break the silence surrounding violence against women in Senegal. Theatre provides an outlet for the public to talk openly about human rights abuses that were normally considered only a "familial problem."
In this notebook we learn about the ways in which forensic science can unearth human rights abuses from the past and bring closure to families as well as truth to the judicial process. The Argentine Forensic Anthropology Team has been training human rights NGOs to use forensic tools to advance investigations.
