About HRSAT & GHRD

How reporting works

Four steps from your first submission to documentation that can support advocacy and accountability.

  1. Step 1

    Submit an incident

    Share what happened through a guided form designed for clarity and safety.

  2. Step 2

    Upload evidence

    Attach photos, videos, documents, audio or witness statements securely.

  3. Step 3

    Confidential review

    An assigned reviewer examines your submission with care and discretion.

  4. Step 4

    Documentation & action

    Verified reports support advocacy, response coordination and accountability.

What happens after you submit

  • You receive a private case reference
  • Track the status any time online
  • We contact you only with your consent

Your security. Your privacy. Your voice.

Reporting often involves sensitive information that can place victims, witnesses and defenders at risk. We protect it accordingly.

  1. 01

    Absolute ownership

    We never claim ownership of the data you upload. You stay in control.

  2. 02

    Restricted access

    Only the reviewer assigned to a case — and administrators — can open it.

  3. 03

    Strict policy compliance

    GDPR-aligned data minimisation and consent, following international human rights frameworks.

Encrypted transport

TLS in transit and protected storage at rest.

Who can use HRSAT?

Anyone with knowledge of a human rights violation can submit a report — whether you were directly affected or not.

Victims

Individuals directly affected by human rights violations or abuse.

Family members

Relatives reporting abuse, disappearance, detention or threats to loved ones.

Witnesses

People who have seen, heard or documented incidents and violations.

NGOs & civil society

Organisations monitoring, documenting and responding to human rights concerns.

Human rights defenders

Activists and advocates protecting vulnerable communities.

Journalists & researchers

Media and investigators documenting conflict, violations or abuse.

Document what happened. Preserve what matters.

Violations are often hidden by fear, silence and lack of safe reporting access. Your report can change that — and you can stay anonymous.
