ICHR 10 Year anniversary celebrations

'Forgotten Rights, Forgotten Concepts'

The Irish Centre for Human Rights welcomed its first LLM students in September 2000 and we are hosting a series of events in 2010 to celebrate ten years of the Centre’s teaching, research and advocacy. 

The main 10 ^th anniversary event is a major academic conference by the Irish Centre for Human Rights, on the theme of “ Forgotten Rights, Forgotten Concepts.” This will encompass a number of original human rights issues across a broad spectrum which the speakers feel have fallen out of favour or been overlooked. The Conference will be held on campus on 19 and 20 November 2010, and will include many distinguished academics and friends of the Irish Centre for Human Rights. 

 We will hold our Gala Banquet on Friday 19 November in the beautiful Glenlo Abbey Hotel. Tickets for the Banquet are priced at €50 and available in limited number at the NUIG conference website

*The conference fee of €25 includes lunch at the conference and admission to the closing party on Saturday, 20 November.

Photo Exhibition/Publication

As part of the celebrations, the Irish Centre for Human Rights is putting together a collection of photography relating to the human rights experiences of staff and students. Entitled  Human Rights through the Lens, the project will involve the production of a book of photographs taken by alumni in the course of human rights work, activities or experiences that they have been involved in after having graduated from the Centre. We also hope to exhibit some of the photographs in and around the Centre during the 10th anniversary celebrations in November.
