Here’s how an AI tool may flag parents with disabilities
HRDAG contributed to work by the ACLU showing that a predictive tool used to guide responses to alleged child neglect may forever flag parents with disabilities. “These predictors have the effect of casting permanent suspicion and offer no means of recourse for families marked by these indicators,” according to the analysis from researchers at the ACLU and the nonprofit Human Rights Data Analysis Group. “They are forever seen as riskier to their children.”

Preserving human rights data with the Filecoin Network: A journey into the Decentralized Web with HRDAG
At the core of HRDAG’s work are the datasets it gathers, tidies, and uses for estimation and analysis. The data includes evidence of homicides, disappearances, kidnappings, recruitment of child soldiers, and forced displacement. These are some of the most traumatic events that could happen to anyone, and proof of these events is crucial –– so that societies remember the suffering of the past in order not to repeat it in the future. By remembering, we help to validate the experiences of the survivors, enable social recovery, and provide evidence with which to hold the perpetrators accountable. It is therefore essential to preserve and protect this information.

Deaths in custody during the armed conflict in Syria, 2011–2023
HRDAG
A key question of interest for the United Nations Commission of Inquiry on the Syrian Arab Republic is how many victims of the ongoing conflict were killed while in custody? Through our long collaboration with both the UN and multiple Syrian documentation groups, our team of data scientists at the Human Rights Data Analysis Group (HRDAG) have access to documented records of victims killed, under a variety of circumstances, in the Syrian Arab Republic between 2011 and 2023. This report is based on records collected by eight sources documenting deaths in the ongoing armed conflict in Syria.

The killings of social movement leaders and human rights defenders in Colombia 2018 – 2023: an estimate of the universe.
HRDAG + Dejusticia
In 2018, Dejusticia and HRDAG published our first report estimating the total number of social leaders killed in Colombia during 2016-2017. Additionally, we demonstrated that a statistical method known as “capture-recapture” could be used to estimate the underreporting of murdered social leaders. Moreover, our estimate closely matched the total documented by the organizations collectively. A year later, we released a second report, updating the data to include 2018. Five years later, we revisited this exercise to cover the period from 2019 to 2023, focusing on three of the original six organizations.

Tallying Syria’s War Dead
“Led by the nonprofit Human Rights Data Analysis Group (HRDAG), the process began with creating a merged dataset of “fully identified victims” to avoid double counting. Only casualties whose complete details were listed — such as their full name, date of death and the governorate they had been killed in — were included on this initial list, explained Megan Price, executive director at HRDAG. If details were missing, the victim could not be confidently cross-checked across the eight organizations’ lists, and so was excluded. This provided HRDAG and the U.N. with a minimum count of individuals whose deaths were fully documented by at least one of the different organizations. … “
Undercover Minnesota officers suing oversight board have public LinkedIns, discipline and shootings
