Global College Co-Sponsors Open Global Rights Article Series

Fri. May. 30, 2025

Is the future of human rights action local? In our increasingly urbanized world, what role can cities play in promoting and protecting human rights?

Global College is pleased to co-sponsor (with the Young Initiative at Occidental College and the University of Pittsburgh Global Studies Center) a series on the Open Global Rights platform examining these questions. In partnership with the Human Rights Cities Alliance, of which Global College's Dr Kristi Kenyon is a steering committee member, the series addresses a wide range of issues, including city actions related to housing, representation and reckoning with complex histories. The series will continue into the summer, and is available in English, French and Spanish.
