In the last five years the IHRC Africa Region HQ has achieved great feats focusing on the subject of peace in the presence of conflict across the nations of the African Continent while entrenching love in the presence of hatred in the midst of communities.

In our human rights protection services, we believe that all people are created with sacred worth. Our actions and work is patterned within the scope to get condemnation for discrimination on the basis of race, color, gender, age, creed, religion, national origin, ethnicity, physical disability, gender identity or gender expression. Our sincere desire is to ensure that all leadership at all levels in Africa are nondiscriminatory and support diversity.
IHRC Africa Region HQ is operating on the status of the parent IHRC’s affiliation with the UN and International Network Bodies; all African countries with membership of the UN are establishing a country chapter of the IHRC as enshrined in it’s developed legal existence powers.

While our team members make critical contributions, we do not import foreign cures or impose developed-world perspectives. There are no one-size-fits-all solutions at IHRC Relief Fund Trust. Rather, our teams involve local residents – who deeply comprehend the challenges and have the greatest stake in how they are solved – in designing and pursuing the best strategies for their communities.

The basic necessity of our society is to provide education, especially to those areas where it is not much valued. Regardless any gender discrimination everyone needs education. IHRC has taken very constructive steps towards education. Steps towards providing better programs, schools and promoting the freedom of information.
Apart from everything, health is the most essential factor in human lives. IHRC has played a significant role in the health system in some countries. They have established hospitals, clinics or especially government hospitals that treat a person regardless any nationality, race, gender or class.
I hope you all agree with me that wherever we lift one soul from a life of poverty, we are defending human rights. And whenever we fail in this mission, we are failing human rights.
A human rights definition and understanding leads to more adequate responses to the many facets of poverty, responses that do not trample on rights in the pursuit of growth and development. It gives due attention to the critical vulnerability and subjective daily assaults on human dignity that accompany poverty. Importantly, it looks not just at resources but also at the capabilities, choices, security and power needed for the enjoyment of an adequate standard of living and other fundamental civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights.
IHRC believes that through it’s activities several tortured people and victims of abuses will get Legal aid/ Legal Advice and will join to be torch bearers against violations of Human Rights. By focusing international attention where human rights are violated, we give voice to the oppressed and hold oppressors accountable for their crimes. Our rigorous, objective investigations and strategic, targeted advocacy build intense pressure for action and raise the cost of human rights abuse. For years, IHRC has worked tenaciously to lay the legal and moral groundwork for deep-rooted change and has fought to bring greater justice and security to people around the world.
