Program Description
Human rights are codified laws that government is obligated to provide and protect. The study of Human Rights is about training individuals in law concerning the broader field of rights in Canada and around the world. For human rights to be codified into law, there’s often a period of time where the fight for those rights take place—this is through activism. We take an in-depth look at specific issue areas where that fight is still ongoing.
