The annual conference’s programme revolves around the multidimensional concept of ontological and situational "vulnerability" with specific regards to the enhanced challenges brought by the ongoing period of human rights regression. The event will critically elaborate on this notion, not only regarding individual and socio-political scenarios where people are affected by the consequences of destructive neoliberalist policies, but also about nonhuman subjectivities and ecosystems impacted by human-induced phenomena of degradation.
Confirmed speakers include: Baldassare Pastore, University of Ferrara; Mariagrazia Giammarinaro, former UN Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially women and children; Jeremy Sarkin, NOVA University of Lisboa; Roberto De Vogli, University of Padova; Anna Brambilla, Association for Juridical Studies on Immigration (ASGI); Kiran Hassan, Institute of Commoweath Studies, University of London; Piergiuseppe Parisi, Centre for Applied Human Rights, University of York; Aleksandr Osinskyy, UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, South Sudan; Corrado Mandreoli (ResQ).
