About the Lecture Series "Human Rights in a Globalized World", October 2010 - May 2011

Globalization offers new opportunities to promote human rights across borders, but it also poses challenges to existing human rights law. In today’s fast changing world, human rights are relevant in areas ranging from political reconfiguration to economic globalization. One consequence includes shifts in sovereignty, with non-state actors becoming increasingly involved.

What role do global actors, such as large international companies, play today? What can be done to strengthen mechanisms such as voluntary standards of global governance to ensure respect for human rights across the globe? What special challenges do conflict zones present and what is the current human rights situation like here in Germany?

The Hertie School of Governance and Human Rights Watch have invited experts working at the heart of human rights issues across the globe. The lecture series aims to create an open dialogue forum on the various opportunities and challenges of globalization in the context of human rights today.

You are cordially invited to join us in the discussion.
