Human Rights

EIUC Venice School of Human Rights was born in 2010 with the goal of studying today’s challenges in the field of human rights. It allows its participants coming from all over the world to list these challenges and examine their reasons and possible solutions they can deploy. The EIUC Venice School at the same time, combines theory and practice and its faculty involves both academics and practitioners.
The Venice School intends to highlight that the respect for human rights is the responsibility of all, that « Human Rights are our responsibility ».
