The Center for Torture Accountability

The Center for Torture Accountability is dedicated to ending the culture of impunity that enables and nourishes all systems of torture. Our work begins with the "Torture Accountability Archives" -- a careful and comprehensive documentation of the people and organizations that created and justified the Bush administration's torture regime.

As we build up the archives, we will explore options for legal action, toward the goal of holding accountable those who have committed crimes against humanity. We will not give up.

One day, justice.
