Reports
There are numerous organizations online that seek to document international Human Rights issues and abuses. Of these, I recommend the following sources highly. Their reports come out at regular intervals, and there are numerous controls set in place to ensure that informaton is vetted; complete, and collected in a standardized way from country to country, so that fairer comparisons can be made. I hope that you find them as useful as I do.
