Human rights are of all times and places, they are just not recognized everywhere, nor interpreted the same in all countries. There are several human rights systems in place and, in some cases, it can leave victims and their lawyers in a situation where they have to choose which forum to go to or which system to choose to seek their justice. In this programme, you will be trained in human rights at the international level, but also in international humanitarian law and other related fields of (international) law. You will learn about the different systems and how human rights are interpreted within these systems and in different countries. More detailed information on the programme can be found here. Applications should be made through the ''Admission and application'' tab on this page. The LLM International Human Rights Law is registered under the LLM CROHO label International Law and the Law of International Organizations (60605).
