Human Rights Network, Newsletter, and Monitoring

Upon the initiative set by ASK in December 2000, KHRO organized several meetings for organizations and individuals interested in human rights in Kurdistan. These meetings took place on February 9 and 15, and March 11, 2001. The participants agreed to meet regularly to discuss issues related to human rights and find means to improve the current situation.

In January, KHRO, with the assistance of ASK, issued the first issue (No. 1 Winter 2001) of The Voice of Human (Dengi Mirov), a newletter about human rights, in Kurdish and Arabic. Five hundred copies of the 18-page newsletter were printed and distributed to the government, non-government institutions, and the media.
