    Families confront a breadth of issues with human rights implications. This program will explore how the family and its members are affected by and respond to human rights issues. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, women’s rights, children’s rights, rights of refugees and internally-displaced persons, labor rights, health and education rights, migration, food insecurity, and relationships among human rights treaty bodies that are relevant to different family members. We aim to have a dialogue that explores these and other relevant issues in all parts of the world (including the United States). When selecting the papers, priority was given to new voices in international human rights law.
