Human Rights House of Bergen
Human Rights House is based in Bergen, Norway. The Human Right House was established in memory of Thorolf Rafto’s son, Egil Rafto and officially was opened in 1999 by Aung San Suu Kyis youngest son, Kim Aris. Beside the Rafto Foundation for Human Rights, several organisations have permanent offices in the house, such as Amnesty International, AFS Intercultural Learning, Médecins Sans Frontières, Norwegian Church Aid's Youth, while other groups use the house for seminars, meetings and social events.
