Glasgow Human Rights Network (GHRN)
Description
A workshop that took place on January 18, 2011 established significant interest in creating a Glasgow Human Rights Network. The network now comprises members from the University of Glasgow and universities across Scotland, as well as civil society and national/local government from across Scotland. The network supports teaching and research around human rights, and facilitates links between academics within and beyond Glasgow as well as facilitates knowledge exchange between academics and practitioners.
The aims of the network are to be an internationally recognized network for human rights, to facilitate interdisciplinary research collaboration, to support interdisciplinary teaching in human rights, particularly at postgraduate level, to support knowledge exchange between practitioners and researchers, and to provide a public forum for lectures, debates, and other activities. The network is open to exploring the possibilities of working with a range of strategic partners.
The initial focus of the Glasgow Human Rights Network (GHRN) is to forge links with partners, members of the public and other institutions based in Scotland only. The network is open to potential working relationships with organizations based outside Scotland and will hold their details on file if membership is extended at a later date.
