LDHR is a grass-roots NGO dedicated to civilians in crisis with the intent to stop human rights violations and assist those who require services to seek justice and rehabilitation. We originally started as a group of lawyers and physicians devoting efforts to document the atrocities taking place in crises with an emphasis on ex-detainees and torture survivors. Through targeted trainings and mentoring by international experts, we were able to deepen and diversify our own expertise in medical-legal documentation of torture and SGBV. Multiple phases of this project produced committees, attracted new members, and we have developed a more organized way of collaborating to obtain justice and fulfill the mission of preserving human rights for all. LDHR is growing fast and expanding its activities, while continuing to build and share knowledge and expertise.
