Advocacy Hub - Students' Voices at the Human Rights Centre
The Master's students of Human Rights and Multi-level Governance at the University of Padova, in collaboration with the Human Rights Centre “Antonio Papisca”, proudly present a project aimed at fostering engagement and awareness in the field of human rights.
Our student-led initiative focuses on organizing a series of seminars, workshops, and dialogues to delve into current human rights issues. Through the Advocacy Hub, we aim to facilitate dialogue and constructive exchanges among students, scholars, practitioners, and activists.
With a focus on inclusivity and knowledge-sharing, our project seeks to empower participants to become informed advocates for human rights. By bridging the gap between theory and practice, we aspire to instigate tangible change within our communities and beyond.
The Advocacy Hub Team strongly welcomes student-led initiatives for future seminars, workshops and more. Proposals can be presented via email to advocacy.hub@unipd-centrodirittiumani.it
