Research & Collaboration
Advancing Human Rights Through Research and Action
The Human Rights Program supports interdisciplinary research in the human rights field with a goal of strengthening practice and the profession overall. We are active in local, national, and international human rights applied research and advocacy. This includes both long-term and short-term projects undertaken by faculty, staff, and students. In addition to our projects, we have a long history of collaboration and a deep network of connections with human rights non-governmental organizations.

Minnesota’s Human Rights Stories Oral History Project (MHRO) captures interviews with Minnesota-based human rights advocates, highlighting their experiences, impact, and contributions. Part of the Minnesota Human Rights Archive, it preserves and shares the state’s role in advancing human rights.
