At the Human Rights Foundation (HRF), our work is inspired by the individuals who dedicate their lives, often at great personal risk, to challenging authoritarian governments that violate the most basic rights of 4.2 billion people around the world.

According to HRF’s research, 54% of humanity currently lives under an authoritarian regime.
