Introduction

Doctors for Human Rights (DHR) is a long established human rights organistion with a global remit. Membership is open to the general public, corporations and health professionals alike. Since coming into existence in 1989 our experience shows that the medical world can both inform and learn from the Human Rights community.

DHR exists to channel the humanity, influence and unique skills of the medical profession into securing worldwide observance of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other internationally recognised Human Rights standards.

As the only Health and Human Rights organisation in the UK we are embarking on a programme of development that includes an expansion of our activities and the creation of the first Health and Human Rights Centre in the UK

DHR is affiliated to the International Federation of Health and Human Rights Organisations
