“Iran prison atlas, the most comprehensive database of current iranian political prisoners, the judges that convict them, and the prisons that hold them. The atlas enables activists to advocate for individual political prisoners based on ethnicity, gender, religion or form of activism. Iran prison atlas interactive tools allow users to identify patterns of abuse by iranian judges, mistreatment at various detention centers, and conviction trends based on race, religion, gender, activity, and other classifications. Over 900 current political prisoners, 200 judges, and 150 prisons are profiled. Objective: iran prison atlas is an advocacy tool for ngos, activists, foreign governments, and all people working to improve human rights in iran. The atlas is designed to record the treatment of every current iranian political prisoner. Impact: key people in the iranian human rights movement are using the atlas. Dr. Ahmed shaheed, the united nations special rapporteur on the situation of human rights in iran, relies on the atlas in his reports. Iran prison atlas has also been a pivotal tool in encouraging countries to vote for un resolutions calling on iran to improve its human rights record. The mechanism: the iran prison atlas is a dynamic tool that collects, integrates, and creates a visual map of all the critical information on political prisons, prisoners, and judges. The atlas enables users not only to zoom in and see the story of one person, but also to zoom out and see patterns and trends of abuse among iranian prisons and judges. The atlas pairs unique stories with the big picture, and is a valuable tool for anyone working for judicial and prison reform and the release of all political prisoners. A real-time interactive map shows the distribution and the population of political prisoners in each prison. Users can monitor trends or drill into the data by focusing, for example, only on lockups administered by ministry of intelligence. A demographic matrix helps users sort current political prisoners based on ethnicity, gender, charges, and other classifications. Finally, iran prison atlas ranks judges based on a number of factors, including those who have given the highest average prison terms against current political prisoners, highest total verdicts against political prisoners, or highest number of procedural violations against political prisoners.”
