HRDAG (the Human Rights Data Analysis Group) designs and builds information management solutions and conducts statistical analysis on behalf of human rights projects. With our partners, we make scientifically-defensible arguments based in rigorous evidence.

HRDAG develops database software, data collection strategies, and statistical techniques to measure human rights atrocities. Our technology and analysis is used by truth commissions, international criminal tribunals, and non-governmental human rights organizations around the world. The incorporation of HRDAG into Benetech brings together HRDAG's considerable field experience with Benetech's software engineering expertise. Our analysis identifies the trends and patterns which is the evidence of crimes of policy.

Together, we will build tools and projects that help human rights workers do their jobs better.

The Human Rights Data Analysis Group (HRDAG) was incubated for more than a decade at the Science and Human Rights Program. AAAS supports the application of science to human rights as one way that science serves society.

HRDAG is now a project of The Benetech Initiative. Learn more.
