The Human Rights Torch Relay (HRTR) is an international campaign that seeks to bring an end to all human rights abuses against people in China. During the run up to the 2008 Olympics, the HRTR will sponsor events in 37 countries on five continents to publicize its founding premise:

The Olympics and crimes against humanity cannot co-exist in China.
