U.S. State Department Releases 2009 Human Rights Report for Haiti Friday, 12 March 2010, 9:10 pm

As this report pertains strictly to 2009, it does not address human rights issues in post earthquake Haiti. Still, it is highly relevant as long term recovery and reconstruction will depend in part upon creating a culture that respects human rights and a government that can enforce them.Source: Haiti Innovation News/Actualités | Bryan Schaaf
