ESREI Collaborates with the Human Rights Measurement Initiative
The Human Rights Measurement Initiative, HRMI, has adopted the Right Indices comprising the SERF Index as their economic and social rights metrics. They have just launched data visualization tools that allow you easily to compare a country’s performance on the different rights at a given time and over time, and to compare performance on each right within each geographic region. You can access these tools at www.humanrightsmeasurement.org by clicking on the orange button.
