At the cutting edge of education and advocacy, our Clinic is a force driving tangible change in human rights.
- Action: We're on the front lines, fighting for human rights and humanitarian protection through litigation, research, and unyielding advocacy. Working hand-in-hand with communities and partner organizations, we dismantle systemic injustices, effecting immediate and lasting change.
- Education: We're not just shaping lawyers; we're cultivating ethical champions for human rights. Through immersive projects, mentorship, and profound reflection, we equip minds ready to confront today's challenges head-on.
- Innovation: We're not content with the status quo. We're trailblazers, constantly devising new strategies and technologies to tackle urgent human rights issues. Through dynamic teamwork and innovative problem-solving, we're shaping a brighter, more just future, starting right now.
Meet the Team
We are human rights attorneys, advocates, and activists with a passion for teaching and mentoring our students. Each of us brings years of experience to our clinical practice, drawn from the many settings where we worked before joining this community, including small grassroots NGOs, large international NGOs, government, the United Nations, and law firms, and further developed in IHRC itself. As established experts in the field, we also produce cutting-edge scholarship on a range of human rights-related topics and contribute to conferences, symposia, and the media.
