What We Do

HUMAN RIGHTS WORKSHOP

The Human Rights Committee has also organised a Certifocate Workshop in collaboration with the National Human Rights Commission and have delved into the intersection of law and justice, the need of policy making in light of the NEP 2020, and need for robust legislation and frameworks to regulate the gig and platform workers.

HUMAN RIGHTS WEEK

We, The Human Rights Committee, celebrate Human Rights Week every year to commemorate the World Human Rights Day. The Human Rights Day was formally incepted on 10th December 1950, after the United Nations General Assembly invited states and organizations across the world and adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Although the declaration is not binding, it has inspired more than 60 human rights organizations to advocate against violation of human rights and led to the promotion of educational, health, and other related welfare programs in many states.

This day is celebrated to promote equality, peace, justice, freedom, and human dignity. Regardless of race, color, religion, sex, language, or social status, every person is entitled to these rights. Human Rights Day is celebrated across the globe by formally organizing exhibitions, political conferences, meetings, cultural events, and many other programs to advocate for human rights awareness. This sacred document was drafted by Eleanor Roosevelt, who referred to it as the "Humanity's Magna Carta."

HUMAN RIGHTS STALL

The HRC Stall offers an exciting space for all university students to engage in fun activities, games, and contests. The stall will feature creative posters, cards, bookmarks, and other unique products available for purchase, along with interactive games and face-painting sessions to bring students together.

In a special initiative, the committee will collaborate with small business owners from the student community, giving them a platform to showcase and market their products. Additionally, all proceeds from the stall will be donated to a partnered NGO, combining fun with a meaningful cause.

PANEL DISCUSSION

The Human Rights Committee's panel discussion explorin innovative approaches to humanitarian response and international cooperation. The panellists have a deep understanding about human rights as an academic discipline. The discussion helped students to understand human rights through an interdisciplinary approach. In an increasingly interconnected world, the ideals of internationalism are being challenged by rising instances of conflict, geopolitical tensions, and transgressions of human rights. The current global landscape sees numerous humanitarian crises triggered by both state and non- state actors, leading to widespread displacement, suffering, and economic instability.

The Human Rights Committee, School of Law organises a Paperless Moot Court Competition on contemporary issues related to Human Rights. The event provides a platform for the 1st and 2nd Year Student Body to hone and refine their research and advocacy skills.
