The Zimbabwe Human Rights NGO Forum (also known as the "Human Rights Forum") has been 
in existence since January 1998. Non-governmental organisations working in the field 
of human rights came together to provide legal and psycho-social assistance to the 
victims of the Food Riots of January 1998.        
The Human Rights Forum has now expanded its objectives to assist victims of organised 
violence, using the following definition:  "organised violence" means the interhuman 
infliction of significant avoidable pain and suffering by an organised group according 
to a declared or implied strategy and/or system of ideas and attitudes. It comprises 
any violent action which is unacceptable by general human standards, and relates to 
the victims' mental and physical wellbeing.  
The Human Rights Forum has two operational units, the Legal Unit and the Research 
Unit, with administrative staff to support its operations.  There are currently 10 
core members <frames/inside_frame_member.htm> of the Human Rights Forum and 2 
associate members.   
The Human Rights Forum produces regular reports on human rights violations in 
Zimbabwe. Its Legal Unit also provides free legal assistance to victims of organised 
violence and torture. The Human Rights Forum works in close collaboration with its 
member organisations to provide legal and psycho-social services to victims of 
organised violence and torture and to document all human rights violations, 
particularly politically motivated violence.
