IHRLI is one of a small number of academically based
human rights centers that link scholarship and educational activities
with the design and management of human rights programs throughout the
world. Since its founding in 1990, IHRLI has received over $28 million
in support through over 80 grants from private foundations,
inter-governmental organizations, and government agencies. IHRLI has
created projects in Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East,
Europe and Central Asia covering diverse subjects including
international criminal law, indigenous rights, gender justice,
trafficking and post-conflict justice. Specific projects produce policy
oriented research, engage in large scale human rights documentation and
analysis, train grassroots organizations in human rights advocacy and
provide capacity building for judges, lawyers and others. These projects
create links between DePaul University and the United Nations, regional
human rights institutions, foreign universities, NGOs and international
organizations connecting DePaul faculty, staff and students with
partners around the world.Past Projects
