Established in 1986 and registered in 1987, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) is the country’s apex independent human rights body. A non-political, not-for-profit organisation, HRCP is committed to realising the entire ambit of human rights—civil, political, economic, social, and cultural—for all citizens and persons present in the country. HRCP uses the framework provided by the fundamental freedoms guaranteed in the Constitution of Pakistan as well as international human rights instruments, to some of which Pakistan is a state party.

HRCP believes that this goal must be realised without any distinction or discrimination on grounds of gender, race, religion, sect or belief, ethnicity, area of origin, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, or socioeconomic status. To this end, HRCP works closely with vulnerable, marginalised and excluded groups, such as women, children, members of ethnic and religious minorities, workers, peasants, and survivors of human rights abuses. 

The organisation’s secretariat is based in Lahore, with regional offices in Karachi, Hyderabad, Peshawar, Quetta, Turbat, Multan, and Gilgit. HRCP’s Centre for Democratic Development operates from Islamabad. Our offices work with volunteers at the district level, augmented by hundreds of active members in cities and towns across Pakistan.
