Institutional Collaboration with FLACSO-Mexico

The Human Rights Program is part of an institutional collaboration between the University of Minnesota and Facultad Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales (FLACSO-Mexico). The Collaboration received the Office of International Programs "Interdisciplinary International Institutional Partnership Grant" involving the Human Rights Program as well as colleagues in the College of Education and Human Development, College of Liberal Arts, Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs, the University Extension Service, and Law School-Human Rights Center. As part of the collaboration, Barbara Frey has been involved as a visiting lecturer for the Masters in Human Rights and Democracy program at FLACSO.

International Women's Day

HRP co-sponsors the annual International Women's Day celebration in March. Inspired by the 1995 U.N. Fourth World Conference on Women held in Beijing, the local celebration was designed to celebrate the diversity of Minnesota women and to increase understanding and tolerance of the different backgrounds of women living in our community. Workshops for the day are selected to increase recognition of the relevance of international women’s human rights on the local level and to draw attention to the twelve areas of concern articulated in the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action.

The International Women's Day website is maintained by Minnesota Advocates for Human Rights
