Human Rights Forum

Every year the UN celebrates the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights at the beginning of December.
'Human rights' is broadly defined and encompasses the national, regional and international; civil and political rights, economic, social and cultural rights; the theory and practice of human rights; enforcement issues etc.

Launch

In order to mark that day and to launch a new Human Rights Forum, you are invited to attend an event in the School of Law's Moot Court in Bartolomé House on Wednesday 12th December at 4pm.

The launch will begin with a ILA British Branch Seminar by Dr Marko Milanovic, University of Nottingham.

'Extraterritorial Application of Human Rights Treaties: Law, Principles, and Policy'

Human Rights Research - Establishing Links

There will be presentations by staff and students from the School of Law on their human rights research. We are keen to establish links between human rights researchers throughout the university.
If you would like to present a poster illustrating your human rights research please submit your proposal to Dr Sorcha MacLeod at s.macleod@sheffield.ac.uk no later than 4pm on Friday 23rd November
