Championing Human Rights: Locally and Globally

We believe in a world where every person’s rights are upheld.

Discover our global initiatives, impactful litigation, and how you can join us in advocating for justice

Advocate with us as an Attorney

HRA has submitted briefs on a number of issues, such as: affirmative action; the jurisdiction of US courts to hear claims involving international human rights law; the juvenile death penalty; the rights of immigrants; prison conditions; torture; defense of sanctuary workers; rights of protesters against nuclear weapons; and internationally recognized rights of disabled persons, women, and others. Join us in our efforts!

Advocate for human rights by joining our internship and our fellowship

While our programs encourage law students to learn about various UN bodies, human rights violations currently occurring in the world, and all the different ways we can make an impact, joining our internship and fellowship puts you directly in front of the stakeholders who can make a difference.
