Center for Human Rights in Iran
About Center for Human Rights in Iran
Based in New York, the Center for Human Rights in Iran (CHRI) represents a collaborative international movement dedicated to protecting and promoting the fundamental rights and freedoms of the Iranian people. The organization brings together award-winning journalists, researchers, lawyers, activists, writers, and multimedia specialists from around the world who share a commitment to human rights advocacy and accountability. What distinguishes CHRI is its unique model of combining international expertise with direct connections to independent investigators and human rights defenders operating inside Iran, creating a bridge between on-the-ground realities and the international community.
CHRI's mission extends beyond documentation to meaningful impact through strategic partnerships with activists, civil society organizations, and international bodies worldwide. The organization believes in the power of accurate information and compelling storytelling to drive awareness and change, which is why it invests in producing diverse content formats—from traditional reports and articles to innovative multimedia projects and interactive platforms. By serving as a trusted voice on Iranian human rights issues, CHRI empowers journalists, policymakers, and citizens with the information needed to understand complex human rights challenges and advocate for meaningful reform. The organization's commitment to independence and nonpartisan analysis ensures that all stakeholders in the New York-based center work toward a shared vision of advancing basic rights and freedoms for the Iranian people while maintaining accountability to international human rights standards.
