The Human Rights Clinic exposes students to the practice of law in the international and cross-cultural context of human rights litigation and advocacy.
The Human Rights Clinic (HRC), which launched in January 2011, exposes students to the practice of law in the international and cross‐cultural context of human rights litigation and advocacy at the local, national, and international levels. In the classroom, students critically engage with human rights law and contemporary social problems while honing their lawyering and advocacy skills. Outside of the classroom, students gain hands‐on experience working on cutting‐edge human rights projects and cases before the United Nations, the Organization of American States, and other human rights bodies.
