The first step in this activity is choosing a human rights issue you will use as the basis for discussing a data visualization. It does not necessarily have to be an issue you are deeply familiar with or that you work on.
This list of rights is drawn from a list of human rights issues on the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights web site. It is not intended to be an authoritative list of human rights, but rather a sampling of rights and some related data sources for the purpose of discussion.
