Extending Human Rights Atlas

项目摘要

This project is a continuation of the ESRC-funded follow-on project Human Rights Atlas (ES/J000728/1) which has collated data on basic country statistics, legal comitments and human rights practices for all the countries and territories in the world for the period 1981 to 2011 [www.humanrightsatlas.org]. The continuation phase involves updating of the data in the main flat file and actively disseminating the Atlas to a primary user group in Latin America; assisting the user group in using the Atlas to map and analyse human rights issues in Latin America for the period 1990 to 2011; and working with two private organisations - The Mackman Group and the Thomson Reuters Foundation - to continue to raise awareness about the Atlas. The Latin American user group is being coordinated by the Faculty of Social Sciences in Mexico City (FLACSO), which is mapping human rights in the region and identifying gaps in knowledge about human rights using comparative statistical indicators of the kind already collated in the Human Rights Atlas. The work involves a workshop in Mexico City with FLACSO and its network of its researchers. The region itself had undergone remarkable and dramatic political transformations over the period envisaged for this study, including extraction from prolonged periods of authoritarianism, processes of transitional justice, re-establishment and consolidation of democracy, structural adjustment and macro-economic recovery, and rapid economic development among big regional actors such as Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and Chile. The Atlas provides a systematic resource that addresses the main data needs of this research network. The second main part of the project is to work with the Mackman Group (a private sector partner in the original Human Rights Atlas project) and the Thomson Reuters Foundation (the charitable fundation of the global media company Thomson Reuters) to disseminate the Atlas resource and raise awareness about cross-national human rights indicators for a wide range of users, including key organisations from the public and private sectors. This part of the project will take advantage of the Mackman Group's marketing technologies and Thomson Reuters' AlertNet resource, which is dedicated to the humanitarian sector around the world. In addition to the on-line promotional work, the project will also host a large London-based user engagement event hosted by Thomson Reuters in its Canary Wharf facility. This event will feature high profile global leaders from the humanitarian sector to discuss the needs of users for systematic data and data visualisation of the kind carried out by the original Atlas project.

该项目是ESRC资助的后续项目人权地图集（ES/J000728/1）的延续，该项目已经整理了有关1981年至2011年世界上所有国家和地区的基本国家统计，法律统计和人权实践的数据[www.humanrightsatlas.org]。延续阶段涉及在主扁平文件中更新数据，并积极将地图集传播到拉丁美洲的主要用户组；协助用户群体使用地图集来绘制和分析1990年至2011年拉丁美洲的人权问题；并与两个私人组织（Mackman Group and Thomson Reuters Foundation）合作，以继续提高对地图集的认识。拉丁美洲用户组由墨西哥城（FLACSO）的社会科学学院（FLACSO）协调，该学院正在绘制该地区的人权，并使用已经在人权地图集中已经整理的类似的比较统计指标来识别有关人权知识的差距。这项工作涉及与Flacso及其研究人员网络在墨西哥城举行的研讨会。该地区本身经历了这项研究时期的巨大和戏剧性的政治转变，包括从长期的威权主义时期，过渡司法的过程，民主的重新建立和巩固，结构调整和宏观经济恢复以及快速的经济恢复以及墨西哥诸如墨西哥诸如墨西哥诸如Brazil，Brazil，Argentina和Chile之类的大型地区经济发展。地图集提供了一个系统的资源，可满足该研究网络的主要数据需求。该项目的第二部分是与麦克曼集团（原始人权地图集项目的私营部门合作伙伴）和汤姆森路透基金会（全球媒体公司汤姆森·路透社的慈善资金）合作，以分散地图集资源，并提高人们对跨国人权指标的认识，以了解广泛范围的公共范围和私人私人私人群体，包括广泛的范围。该项目的这一部分将利用麦克曼集团的营销技术和汤森路透的Alernet资源，该技术专门用于世界各地的人道主义部门。除了在线促销工作外，该项目还将举办由汤姆森路透在其金丝雀码头设施中举办的伦敦大型用户参与活动。该活动将以人道主义部门的吸引人的全球领导者为特色，以讨论用户对原始Atlas项目进行的系统数据和数据可视化的需求。
