The Freedom House’s flagship survey is the standard-setting comparative assessment of global political rights and civil liberties.
Published annually since 1972, the survey ratings and narrative reports on 193 countries and 15 related and disputed territories are used by policymakers, the media, international corporations, civic activists, and human rights defenders to monitor trends in democracy
and track improvements and setbacks in freedom worldwide.
In the Brussels program:
i. Global Trends in Political Rights and Civil Liberties in all continents (except EU and Eurasia)
ii. Ratings of Democracy in Europe and Eurasia
