Venice School of Human Rights

The 3rd edition of Venice School of Human Rights will take place from 28 June till 7 July 2012.

The goal of the Venice School is to allow its participants to be updated on the state of the art debate on human rights issues and to stimulate a reflection on the actual challenges faced by human rights actors worldwide.

After a first session common to all participants dedicated to a general introduction on international systems of protection of human rights and related mechanisms, the programme will develop into the following three thematic clusters:

  • Bussiness and Human Rights
  • Development and Human Rights
  • Transitional Justice and Fight against Impunity

Online registration is open until 30 April 2012 at http://www.eiuc.org/veniceschool/

    human rights is a new religion wih he un declaration as its scripture.like a holy bppkit has to be read daily and sermoned.The violations of these rights continue so organising editions on this great topic which transcend religion, territories and species of human beings become essential.
