Mazlumder Human Rights Report is a report which is composed of examination of violation of human rights all over the world and it is published regularly every year. The report is formed after investigation of concerned countries where there has been violation of human rights. The purpose of the report is to make both people in Turkey and international community conscious of violation of human rights. This report is the first and only report that reports violation of human rights in Turkey. It points out that nobody can decide about human rights and people tend to implement double standard unless they focus on rights and justice.
