Targeted human rights and anti-corruption sanctions like those authorized under the Global Magnitsky sanctions program and related authorities can hold accountable the world's worst human rights abusers and corrupt actors. Human Rights First is the U.S. co-chair of a global coalition of more than 340 civil society organizations that advocate for the use of targeted sanctions in response to human rights abuse and corruption. Along with our partners, we develop cases recommending specific perpetrators for sanctions to help bring a measure of accountability for serious human rights abuse and acts of corruption. Meet our coalition co-leads: REDRESS in the United Kingdom, the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights in Canada, the Open Society Foundations in the European Union, and the Australian Centre for International Justice in Australia.
