Impunity persists for grave human rights violations including torture, ill-treatment of citizens, enforced disappearances and extrajudicial executions. More than 27k people remain missing or disappeared. Human rights defenders and journalists continue to be threatened, harassed or killed. Violence against women continues to be widespread. Large-scale development and resource exploitation projects are being carried out without a legal framework regarding the free, informed consent of Indigenous communities they affected. Torture and other ill-treatment remain widespread among law enforcement and investigative officials and little progress has been made to eradicate it. Those defending the environment and land rights continue to be at particular risk. Shine a light on human rights abuses!
