The Human Rights Program (HRP) seeks to
give impetus and direction to international
human rights work at Harvard Law School.
Now in its twenty-fourth year, the HRP fosters
course work and participation of students in
human rights activities through its summer
fellowships, clinical work, speaker series, applied
research and scholarship. The HRP advises
students wishing to conduct research
projects with human rights organizations, and provides counseling in the field.
The HRP also plans and directs international conferences and roundtables on the leading human rights issues and debates in the field.
Through these activities, the HRP seeks to
make international human rights an integral
part of a Harvard Law School education. It
works to educate students who will be among
the leaders of the human rights movement, and
foster progress within the movement through
its scholarship, engagement, criticism and suggestions.
