Since 1997, LICADHO has issued reports on human rights and Cambodian prisons,highlighting the issues of most serious concern and recommending avenues of change. As an independent non-governmental organization, LICADHO aims to monitor Cambodia’s prisons and prisoners' rights; disseminate relevant high quality, non-partisan information; and to lobby for positive reform. It is our sincere hopethat this report will be used by human rights advocates, researchers, aid donors, legal professionals, as well as government and prison officials as a tool to identify existing problems, to improve prison conditions and to promote respect for prisoners' rights. There is a clear connection between systemic human rights violations in Cambodia’s prisons and reduced prisoner health. This report seeks to highlight these connections and outline the prison health issues of most pressing concern in 2002 and 2003.
