This seminar will expose students to the all-inclusive and bottom-up perspective of human rights and to the hows and whys of human rights protection. Students will undertake in-depth investigations, in some cases under the auspices of local or international organizations, on the impact, for good or ill, of particular policies or programs. The resulting evidence of human rights abuse or of effective human rights protection will be employed in efforts to prevent abuse, rather than simply to monitor or report it. Students will therefore engage also in strategic planning for campaigns to move the intervention of activists upstream in the project design or policy-making process.
