- Benetech is a California nonprofit organization.An important problem in the fight against the abuse of human rights lies in the area of information management. The problem is not in the amount of information that comes out of the field. To the contrary, there are mountains of raw information.

Critics can discredit inaccurate statistics and damage the credibility of human rights claims.
