Human Rights Program 25th Anniversary
The Human Rights Program celebrates its 25th anniversary this year! Join us for special events.
25th Anniversary Events
On Friday, October 9, we will kick off our 25th Anniversary celebrations with Lessons from the Resistance: Celebrating Minnesota’s Human Rights Defenders. At this event, we will recognize local human rights defenders, including our HRP founders, alumni, and students, and increase our understanding of the broader culture of resistance in which they are embedded. Join us for the Stephen and Chacke Scallen Lecture in Human Rights and a panel discussion with local human rights defenders. Join us earlier in the afternoon for a Brewing Justice alumni-student mixer.
Join us on Tuesday, December 8, as we conclude our 25th Anniversary celebrations with our annual Human Rights Day Symposium. The symposium will feature our student poster session, followed by a keynote speaker. Apply by Sunday, October 25 to have your poster featured in the Human Rights Day Research Symposium.
