Summer and Winter Schools - Economics and Political Science
Research School “Law & Development” and “Human Rights & Conflict”
The Research School on Human Rights, articulated in two modules: Law and Development, and Human Rights and Conflict.
For the module 1, the idea behind the school is to provide young and promising scholars, including doctoral candidates and master-level students, with a platform to discuss their ongoing research and receive critical feedback from peers and senior academics. The second module proposes a multidisciplinary journey at the intersection between human rights and conflict dynamics. The topic encompasses a wide range of issues, including the impact of armed conflict on the enjoyment and protection of human rights, the role of human rights in conflict prevention and resolution, the challenges of promoting accountability and justice in post-conflict settings, and the intersectionality of human rights violations in diverse conflict contexts. Also this module is tailored for Ph.D. students, Master students in the final phases of their research, and young scholars seeking to deepen their expertise in this critical area.
