Bioethics

Each year, the Law Library commemorates Human Rights Day with a special program that promotes understanding and recognition of a critical social, economic, or cultural human rights issue. In previous years, we hosted a number of events highlighting various aspects of this topic - such as Contact Tracing and the Right of Privacy, Impact of the Women’s Suffrage Movement Today, Repatriating Native American Cultural Property and Remains, Human Rights in Eastern Europe, Islamic Law reform, Rights of Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons, and many more.
