The index is based on 60 indicators grouped in five different categories measuring pluralism, civil liberties, and political culture.[7] US The CIRI Human Rights Data Project measures a range of human, civil, women's, and workers' rights.[8] It was created in 1994 and is now hosted by the University of Connecticut.[9] In its 2011 report, the U.S. was ranked 38th in overall human rights.[10] Freedom in the World, published each year since 1972 by the U.S.-based Freedom House, ranks countries by political rights and civil liberties that are derived in large measure from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
