The Monitor

The Monitor

Conceived under AFE’s Gender and Sexuality Resource Center (GSRC), “The Monitor” is a unified online documentation tool between organizations working on gender and sexuality, with a focus on LGBT populations. The online platform provides a space to document and classify cases of human rights violations on the basis of gender identity and sexual orientation. The aim is to allow individuals as well as service providers to document cases of violations via a secure interface, which will be monitored by a documentation officer who will be following up on each case.

The aim of The Monitor is to provide the necessary follow-up and referral for violation cases, but also to publish an annual report of the different violations occurring throughout the year, to be used as an important tool for advocacy and lobbying.
