Review reports on the human rights situation generally and women’s rights specifically in participant countries as well as issues particularly relevant to participant focus (that is, sexual and reproductive rights, the environment, and freedom of expression).

Review reports on the situation of human rights defenders in participant countries. These may be harder to locate than general human rights reports, but they can be found in documents such as Steadfast in Protest1, the reports of the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders2 , and on the websites of groups such as the International Freedom of Expression eXchange (IFEX)Front Line, and the Women Human Rights Defenders International Coalition.
