ExplanationWe assist human rights defenders who face serious threats to their life or safety as a result of their human rights activism and cannot afford to take measures to protect themselves. Where a human rights defender's work with Human Rights Watch has placed her in danger, we feel a particular responsibility and will give priority. We may also assist direct family members of affected human rights defenders if they, too, have to flee a threatening situation. In all cases, we will require the requesting staff member to confirm that the defender is at real risk of reprisals because of their human rights activities. Requests need to be submitted to the foundations unit of the development department, with a brief description of the person in need, her work and circumstances, and the amount she will need and for what purpose. Once a request is approved, the finance department will facilitate the transfer. We also may ask for more information describing the human rights defender to enable us to report back to the donors who support this fund.Explanation

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 2:BOARD DIRECTOR, JEAN-LOUIS SERVAN-SCHREIBER IS THE FATHER-IN-LAW OF, BOARD DIRECTOR, KEVIN RYAN.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11A:Prior to filing Form 990, a copy of Form 990 is distributed to all board members in January, and Board members have the opportunity to ask questions regarding Form 990.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C:HRW requires all officers, directors and key employees to annually confirm their receipt of the conflict of interest policy and disclose any new associations or interests that might potentially pose a conflict. The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board receives these disclosures and other questions relating to conflicts of interest and determines whether and what action to take.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15A:Policy and Procedures for Compensation and Performance Review Of Executive Director: The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors shall perform a performance and compensation review of HRW's Executive Director biennially. The following procedure shall be followed in conducting this review: 1. The members of the Executive Committee, or a majority of the committee members, shall interview members of the HRW community with knowledge of the Executive Director's job performance, including donors, peers, government officials, and staff members reporting directly to the ED. 2. Several common questions shall be asked in each interview. 3. The interviewing committee members shall discuss and condense their findings in a conference call. Areas where improvement may be warranted shall be presented to and discussed with the full Executive Committee. 4. The Executive Committee shall meet in executive session with the ED to ask for his/her impression of his/her own job performance. 5. The ED shall submit a written self-evaluation. The Executive Committee shall obtain and consider a survey of salaries of comparable CEOs of NGOs of similar size and budget and with a similar mission. 6. The Executive Committee shall meet in executive session to vote on the ED's increased level of compensation, if any. 7. Whenever a member of the Executive Committee has a potential conflict of interest in the compensation of the ED, the conflict shall be disclosed prior to the committee discussion of executive compensation and the member with the potential conflict shall recuse him/herself from the deliberative and voting processes. 8. The results of the performance and compensation review shall be shared with the full board. 9. The Chairperson of the Board of Directors shall write a letter to Director of Human Resources containing the ED's performance evaluation and another letter to the Finance and Administration Director containing the Board's compensation recommendations. These letters shall serve as the official documentation of the committee's decision on the ED's level of compensation.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15B:Human Rights Watch strives to maintain a competitive compensation system that is in the best interest of both the organization and our employees to appropriately compensate our workforce for the value of the work provided. It is our intention to use an objective and non-discriminatory compensation system based on periodically updated market data across multiple jurisdictions. Compensation is determined based upon external and internal equity within the given jurisdiction, contingent on an incumbent's education and relevant experience; while salary discussions will often include supervising directors, approval may only be granted by the Human Resources Director. Subsequent salary increases are based upon available organizational resources, the current cost of living trend and the employee's performance as evaluated by their immediate supervisor(s).
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19:THE ORGANIZATION MAKES ITS GOVERNING DOCUMENTS, CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST AND ON ITS WEBSITE.
