Centre For Study & Advocacy of Human Rights

The Centre for Study and Advocacy of Human Rights was established in the year 2021 to undertake and publish interdisciplinary research studies in the area of human rights (concept, law and enforcement), besides taking steps to spread human rights literacy among the needy and to promote human rights advocacy culture in the students. CSAHR strives to promote human rights literacy and advocacy for Human Rights by organizing workshops, seminars, panel discussions, and conferences involving the targeted stakeholders to identify suitable remedial measures for human rights violations. In furtherance of these activities, the centre would initiate research studies and publish important areas of human rights law protection and promotion or enforcement. The centre shall also provide specialised courses and internships and will be organising a Human Rights Law Moot Court Competition in the coming years. Through these efforts, the centre aims to study, promote and advocate for the Human Rights of the people.
