Human Rights Violation Reporting Form
Refugees, asylum-seekers, stateless persons as well as lawyers and human rights defenders can report recognized human rights violations they have experienced or witnessed to IRRA through this secure online form. Submissions are assessed for documentation, reporting and advocacy purposes; when appropriate, relevant national and international mechanisms may be notified. This form is not for legal aid applications.
What Is This Form For?
- Ill‑treatment, torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment
- Discrimination; denial of access to rights and services
- Arbitrary detention; push‑back; risk of refoulement
- Incidents at border points, Provincial Directorates of Migration Management or Removal Centers
The form is used for documentation/verification/analysis of violations and, where necessary, for notification to the relevant bodies.
How It Works
- Fill in the form: date/place of the incident, narrative; witnesses/officials if any
- Upload evidence: photos, videos, documents (accepted formats and size)
- Pre‑screening: submission is checked against human rights violation criteria
- Classification: documentation/reporting, advocacy, notification to relevant bodies, or statistical archive
- Follow‑up: if you consented to be contacted, you may receive process updates
