Albanian Human Rights Project

The Albanian Human Rights Project (AHRP) is a U.S.-based nonprofit that focuses on collecting, filming, and preserving the testimonies of Albanians who faced political imprisonment or internment during Albania's communist regime from 1945 to 1991. Through its efforts, AHRP aims to create historical documents for scholarly study, education, and inspiration, emphasizing the importance of core human values like freedom and democracy.

In collaboration with the Wende Museum of the Cold War in Los Angeles, AHRP successfully filmed testimonies from 100 survivors, ensuring that these narratives are preserved for future generations. The project is now part of a broader initiative led by Dr. Justin Elliott, who is researching the testimonies to explore the historical context and impact of political persecution in Albania.
