Peru

Peru is a constitutional, multiparty republic. Elections are characterized as free and fair by observers. There were reports that members of security forces committed some abuses. The government took steps to identify and punish officials who may have committed human rights abuses, but affected parties and civil society actors doubted their credibility.

The overall score indicates that there are substantial risks of potential human rights violations in this country. This may also include the tourism sector. Relevant risks for the tourism sector are, e.g.:
  • Government corruption
  • Lack of investigation of and accountability for gender-based violence
  • Sex and labor trafficking
  • Systematic racial or ethnic violence and discrimination, incl. indigenous persons

For better comparability, we have converted the original scores of the indices to a uniform scale of 1-100 (1 most negative, 100 most positive).

In the following table you find these recalculated values and the original score in brackets behind them.

The Overall Score is the geometric mean of all converted values for each country. It is subcategorized in five risk categories with colour gradations that can be seen in the map.
