International Association of Official Human Rights Agencies

The mission of the International Association of Official Human Rights Agencies (IAOHRA) is to provide opportunities and forums for the exchange of ideas and information among member agencies and other human rights advocates. IAOHRA assists in developing programs for eliminating illegal discrimination in employment, housing, education, public accommodations, public services, and commercial transactions, including banking and lending practices. We develop educational programs on human rights and civil rights issues and serve as a clearinghouse for information exchange between human rights agencies around the world.
