Short Course: Teaching Human Rights

Teaching Human Rights
Wednesday, September 2, 1:30 p.m. – 5:30 p.m.
Hilton Union Square 21

This one-day workshop, held one day before the 2015 Annual APSA Convention, will focus on teaching human rights in Political Science. Our goal is to share bst practices and discuss challenges through a series of panel – led discussions and subfield-focused working groups. One goal of the workshop is to create the basis for an online resource for all section members containing updated examples of syllabi (something we had done long ago but which has fallen aside) as well as links, ideas, and resources for teachers.
