Master of Human Rights
The Master of Human Rights promotes a critical understanding of the discourse that enables policy workers, lawyers, educators, social workers and journalists to contribute to the development, protection, and application of human rights.
These courses suit those who want to enter the field of human rights or add a human rights perspective to their profession, and to those working in the field who wish to enhance their knowledge in a particular area of human rights practice or advocacy.
Using both theoretical and practical learning methods, you’ll examine modern human-rights institutions and explore the philosophical and political development of beliefs about human rights that underpin current systems. You’ll consider how social movements, grass-roots campaigns, and government and non-government organizations have contributed to human rights practices and activism.
The courses examine the subject from multidisciplinary, multicultural, and multireligious perspectives to ensure you develop a globalized understanding.
