Washington, DC

"Thank you for taking the time to explore the Country Reports on Human Rights Practices for 2009. For more than three decades these reports have served as an indispensible record of the state of human rights around the world, and as a tool for those who work courageously to secure human rights for more people in more places. On behalf of the State Department, I welcome you to read our most recent reports, and to join in the important work of making human rights a human reality."
