Notes From the Field: 7th International Conference on Human Rights Education, Santiago, Chile, December 12-14, 2016
Critiquing and Constructing HRE in Higher Education
This workshop will explore the histories of human rights programs in various institutional contexts; share promising practices and current challenges in the areas of teaching, research, and engagement; and present a draft roadmap for collaborative efforts to advance HRE in colleges and universities. The steering committee of the University and College Consortium will address these themes and present outcomes from a meeting of human rights higher education programs that takes place in August 2019. That meeting included representatives from more than a dozen leading US human rights programs, and featured in-depth and candid discussions of the past, present, and future of human rights in higher education. Workshop participants will then be asked to review, critique, and comment on the draft roadmap in small groups based on their perspectives and experiences. This input will be incorporated in the final published report, scheduled for late 2019/early 2020
