UpRights is pleased to announce the publication of its 2023 Annual Report 

As detailed in the report, in 2023 UpRights continued to develop its unique approach to promoting human rights which is rooted in building strong relationships with civil society, national governments, and organizations closely connected to those most affected by human rights issues. By actively listening to their needs, we strive to provide tailored support to use international law to help achieve our partners’ objectives. 

Why does this matter? UpRights has found that despite most accountability efforts occurring at the local level, expertise often remains concentrated in traditional centers of power. We strive to make international law and pathways to justice more accessible to those undertaking the most critical and challenging work on the ground. 

If national actors cannot access or fully harness how international law can benefit them, its impact will be limited. We are continually exploring models of support that emphasize local ownership by those best positioned to advance human rights.  

We invite you to read our annual report and join us in our ongoing commitment to these vital goals.
