Cristosal
Cristosal is a prominent human rights organization based in El Salvador, dedicated to promoting and defending human rights, particularly in relation to issues of justice, equality, and social inclusion. Founded in 2001, the organization works to document human rights violations, provide legal assistance to victims, and advocate for stronger legal protections. Recently, Cristosal has gained attention for its actions in representing 76 judges whose rights were allegedly violated through arbitrary dismissals and forced retirements, prompting the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (CIDH) to analyze the case, highlighting the ongoing struggles for judicial independence and democratic integrity in El Salvador.
