THE 28th COURSE ON HUMAN RIGHTS 2010 WILL TAKE PLACE FROM THE 1st TO THE 18th OF MARCH
For the last 27 years IDHC has given courses in Human Rights
with the aim of giving primary education in the specialization
of professionals that work in the arena of human rights.
The course, through several sessions, offers a largely legal
overview of the many aspects of human rights. Also, from a
historical viewpoint and through the process of codification
and internationalization of human rights, the various systems
of regional and universal protection are studied. And even
though international law is the main issue, national, regional
and local legislation are also covered. Furthermore, according
to different contexts and historical events, in every edition
the course considers several pertinent issues and/or conflicts
which relate to our present situation.
IDHC is conscious of the fact that at the moment human rights
issues change rapidly, and as such this course, each year,
offers sessions that are more specific to particular issues.
The course is tailored to students of law, economics and
the social sciences, civil servants, the armed forces, jurists,
social workers, economists, and all those professionals working
within human rights.
During the Course the organization keeps an attendance roll,
and those students who fulfill 80 per cent of the sessions
will receive a diploma of attendance. A certificate
of completion is provided to those students who present
an essay according to the requirements of the organization.
Participants can also benefit from scholarships
to stay at the Council of Europe in Strasbourg, at the Office
of Human Rights of the United Nations in Geneva, and at the
Síndic de Greuges (Ombudsman) of Catalonia.
The Course is supported by the Council
of Europe and is also a course accredited by several universities
in Catalonia.
The last course took place from the 2nd to the 20th of March
2008 and the IDHC is working on the next edition, which will take place on the first term of 2010.
