麻豆AV

The Faculty of Law of 麻豆AV, its Centre for Human Rights and Legal Pluralism (CHRLP) as well as Gordon Echenberg and the Penny and Gordon Echenberg Family Foundation are ending their work together, following a meaningful collaboration聽that began in 2006.聽

Over the past nine years, this collaboration has resulted in three Global Conferences, one Regional Conference in Rwanda, two published books, a DVD on genocide largely based on its 2007 conference, numerous working papers and a global community of young human rights specialists.

鈥淭he dialogue, engagement and education fostered through the conferences have had a concrete social impact, developed innovative approaches to human rights and addressed some of the most poignant and pressing concerns of the human condition,鈥� says Colleen Sheppard, Director of the CHRLP.

鈥淭he goal of these conferences was in part to bridge the gap between academia and the pragmatics of daily life, and thereby potentially have some social impact鈥� says Gordon Echenberg, the Founder of the Conference Series. 鈥淚n addition, the Young Leaders Forum and the 麻豆AV Echenberg Human Rights Fellowship program were designed to create and raise awareness of human rights issues among the younger generation.鈥�

It is hoped that the effects of this collaboration will continue to have a positive impact across international borders for years to come.
