Abstract

Atlas of Torture: Observing the Situation of Torture Worldwide is maintained by the Human Dignity and Public Security team of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights in Vienna and is supported by a team of researchers with extensive experience in the areas of torture prevention and the protection of the human rights of detainees. The main purposes of the website are to raise the awareness of the legal framework governing the prohibition of torture, compile information on whether nations investigate and prosecute cases of torture, and analyze the structural causes contributing to the continued practice of torture.
