hrdag.mcclister.comHRDAG – Human Rights Data Analysis Group

.Conduct basic research and development We invent and extend scientific methods so that we can better understand patterns of mass violence. Educate through outreach Through speaking engagements, publications, and training graduate students, we help those working in the human rights community to better understand the role and power of statistical data and reasoning. Inaccurate statistics can damage the credibility of human rights claims—that’s why statistics about human rights violations must be as scientifically accurate as possible.
