Human Rights in China (simplified Chinese: 中国人权; traditional Chinese: 中國人權; pinyin: Zhōngguó Rénquán) is a New York–based international, non-governmental organization focused on human rights and fundamental rights in China.[1][2] It is a member organization of the International Federation for Human Rights.[3] According to Fang Lizhi, HRIC is committed to an independent, non-political, and intelligent approach to achieve their goals.[4]
Founded in March 1989 by Chinese students and scholars, HRIC implements programs aimed at generating infrastructural change in China while also engaging in advocacy strategies on behalf of individuals living in China.[2][5][6]
With offices in Hong Kong and New York City,[7] HRIC serves as a source of analysis and information on the human rights situation in China, and advocates in the international area. In 2005, HRIC was recognized by The Tech Museum of Innovation as one of 25 Tech Award Laureates for its use of new technology.[8]
HRIC's Executive Director is Zhou Fengsuo (2023–present). Its former executive directors are Sharon Hom (2002–2023) and Xiao Qiang (1991–2002).
