Even if many people assume so: human rights are not just a matter for the United Nations or other high-level organizations that seem quite far from our daily life! Instead, cities and local civil society can also do a lot to ensure that human rights and sustainability goals are promoted and implemented on the municipal agenda. We will find out how this works in this seminar. ”Human rights” is a quite broad term that encompasses the variety of topics that might seem too abstract or intangible. To delve into this topic, during the seminar, we will read and discuss selected literature, as well as talk to guest speakers. This will help us learn some basics about human rights as a field of study, and particularly about the subject of localization of human rights and how it can be applicable to our immediate environment. As a result of the course, students will be asked to prepare a project related to Weimar from the perspective of human rights at the local level and present it at the Summaery. |
