Brazil

Brazil is a constitutional, multiparty republic governed by a democratically elected government. Elections are reported to be free and fair.
The government prosecuted officials who committed abuses
  • however, impunity and a lack of accountability for security forces was a problem, and an inefficient judicial process at times delayed justice for perpetrators as well as victims.

The overall score indicates that serious violations of human rights happen in this country. Compliance with human rights standards cannot be assumed. High caution should be exercised. Relevant risks for the tourism sector are, e.g.:
  • Corruption by officials
  • Lack of investigation of and accountability for violence against women
  • Threats of violence against members of racial and indigenous groups, LGBTQI+ persons
  • Trafficking in persons
