Throughout the Chicago-area, students are making valuable contributions to the human rights movement by engaging in critical research and advocacy. Recognizing a significant need for communication among and collaboration between students committed to human rights, the Midwest Coalition for Human Rights, the University of Chicago Human Rights Program, DePaul University International Human Rights Law Institute, and Amnesty International USA, are sponsoring a Chicago-area student human rights network. Help build the network by attending our Kickoff Meeting on February 18th.
