Official reports are reports with information about politics, security, human rights, specific groups and migration in other countries. Official reports are based on information from public and confidential sources. The writer uses information from various (inter)national, (non-)governmental organisations, professional literature and media coverage. Moreover, findings in the region and confidential reports from the Dutch representation on the spot are often the basis for an official report.
