U.S. Committee for Human Rights in North Korea

The U.S. Committee for Human Rights in North Korea was founded in October 2001 by a group of "foreign policy and human rights specialists". Currently their main activities are conducting studies of the human rights situation in North Korea and publishing their findings; so far they have produced the book "The Hidden Gulag: Exposing North Korea’s Prison Camps" which is available for free download.
