The Hammurabi Human Rights Organization (also known as HHRO), founded in 2005, is a non-profit organization located in Iraq.[1] The organization focuses on human rights on the local and international level. It also focuses on rights for minority groups within Iraq like Yezidis, Sabian, Mandaen, Turkoman, Assyrians, Armenians and more.[2] Its goal is to provide not only documentation for human rights abuses but also to provide humanitarian aid in Iraq.[1] It focuses on vulnerable groups that are more likely to have their rights violated like children and women. To raise awareness about the issues, HHRO publishes an annual report on the human rights situation in Iraq. It looks at what are the violations and who are the violators.[2]
