INDIGENOUS THESAURUS of HUMAN RIGHTS TERMS

Note from doCip

This thesaurus contains the two following lists, that have been created in English and translated into Spanish, French and Russian:

1. An alphabetic list with 2’153 key-words in two forms:

   1. in alphabetical order in the three languages (ENG, SPA, FRE) and

   2. in English alphabetical order with translation into each different language.

2. A list of 561 sub-categories, gathered and organised into 16 categories, which have also been translated in Spanish, French and Russian.

It is likely that there will be future changes to the thesaurus present form. It is envisaged that it will be continually updated and revised. We wish to thank in advance all those who will be willing to share their comments with us, including comments about the translations (especially difficult as being out of context) and the eventual additions in Spanish, French and Russian.
