Academic focus on human rights

“Human Rights under Pressure: Ethics, Law and Politics” is the name of a research training group jointly organised by Freie Universität Berlin and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The first of its kind, it was made possible by an agreement signed by the two universit­ies on 10 February 2015. The programme allows students to pursue a doctoral degree in Jerusalem and Berlin simultan­eously. Working closely together, the young researchers will explore the multifaceted subject of human rights.
