Human Rights Tracker: New assessments

We have updated our Human Rights Tracker to include over 200 new assessments of government action against United Nations recommendations.

Our unique tool allows you to monitor the status of human rights issues in the UK. We will use it to continue to hold governments to account. We hope our new tool informs research, debate and decision-making to drive meaningful change and enhance human rights for everyone.
