Please join us on May 18 for an advocacy training seminar on the international human rights framework.  

Gain a fundamental understanding of how the international human rights framework can help you protect your clients or communities' basic rights and freedoms. Public interest and criminal defense attorneys, along with civil rights and social justice advocates, will benefit from the comprehensive legal orientation, practical insights, and concrete examples shared by experienced practitioners.

The international framework offers powerful opportunities to increase the impact of our work, and we hope you will join in this important discussion. 

Some of Massachusetts and the country's leading international human rights lawyers and advocates will identify and discuss the United States' human rights obligations and how these may be monitored or enforced by state and federal courts and international bodies.
