Anti-torture initiatives are efforts aimed at preventing the use of torture and inhumane treatment by governments and organizations. These initiatives often involve the establishment of laws, policies, and international agreements that promote human rights and protect individuals from abuse. Organizations like the United Nations and Amnesty International play a crucial role in advocating for these measures and monitoring compliance. Many countries have adopted anti-torture laws and participate in treaties such as the Convention Against Torture. These initiatives also focus on raising awareness about the consequences of torture, providing support for victims, and training law enforcement and military personnel to uphold human rights standards.
