For more than a decade, human rights organizations have warned that a persistent deterioration of respect for human rights and the rule of law was underway. Where does 2022 fit in that descent?

The global report covers 161 countries and focuses on economic, social and cultural rights, rights of internally displaced people, refugees and migrants, discrimination and marginalization, and the climate crisis.
