Over 220 individuals and 25 organisations across the world faced threats and retaliation for cooperating with the UN on human rights, according to a UN report on reprisals issued Thursday. Among the growing trends noted in the report was the increase in people choosing not to cooperate with the UN due to concerns for their safety, or only doing so if kept anonymous. Victims and witnesses in two-thirds of the States listed in the report requested anonymous reporting of reprisals, compared with just a third last year.
