> 2011 was the most violent year for human rights defenders in Guatemala since the end of the civil war. NISGUA's teams of on-the-ground international human rights monitors work to deter violence in communities, courtrooms and at public events. > Former dictator Efrain Rios Montt, who ruled during the bloodiest period of the war, is awaiting trial for genocide and crimes against humanity. > The Xalalá hydro-electric dam is rejected by 89% of the local population because it would displace thousands of indigenous people and damage farmlands and forests. > Almost 400 mining concessions have been granted to transnational gold, silver, nickel, and zinc companies in Guatemala, posing severe threats to rural communities' social and environmental well-being. | |

Report on Guatemala
NISGUA’s award-winning quarterly publication Report on Guatemala (RoG) provides a respected expert voice on Guatemalan issues and a critical perspective of U.S. foreign policy. Offering high-quality reporting combined with a strong political commitment, the Report on Guatemala focuses on topics of both global and local significance, such as the impact of corporate globalization on the community level, the international importance of precedent-setting human rights cases, and alternative visions to the capitalist model. In-depth analyses of Guatemalan current events and history inform activists, scholars, and concerned citizens alike.
Issues typically include a series of articles, an interview of a prominent political analyst or human rights advocate, a book or video review, and a succinct summary of NISGUA’s most recent activities and accomplishments. Since its initial printing in 1978, the Report on Guatemala has received accolades for its on-the-ground coverage, astute political analyses, and renowned contributing authors.
