| Course Description | Prerequisites: Students who have not taken either International Human Rights Law or International Law must obtain instructor permission to enroll After a discussion of the relationship between ‘gender’ and ‘women’s rights,’ this course focuses on women’s international human rights. What ‘human rights’ can women claim, where, how and from whom? What does the slogan ‘women’s rights are human rights; human rights are women’s rights’ mean today and is it still relevant as a guide to analysis, policy-making and advocacy? How can we craft effective and fair institutions and legal norms to promote the human rights of women and who will decide what women’s rights are or should be and what institutions should support them? |
