For nearly five decades, the United States has issued the annual Country Reports on Human Rights Practices (Human Rights Report), which strives to provide a factual and objective record on the status of respect for human rights worldwide. In 2022, the Human Rights Report (HRR) covers 198 countries and territories. The individual reports detail credible reports of human rights abuses and violations, providing a tool used by government officials and advocates concerned about increasing authoritarianism that threatens both human rights and democracy.
