The Chilean Report

The Chilean Report refers to a comprehensive investigation conducted in Chile during the early 1990s, focusing on human rights violations committed during the dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet from 1973 to 1990. Officially known as the "Report of the National Commission on Truth and Reconciliation," it documented thousands of cases of torture, disappearances, and extrajudicial killings. The report aimed to uncover the truth about these abuses, promote accountability, and foster national healing. It became a pivotal document in human rights discourse, highlighting the importance of truth in addressing past injustices and supporting democratic values.
