As a public university, we at Kean have an obligation to provide a forum for discussion about contemporary social justice issues and to help students and community members understand these concerns and the tools they need to address them.
To that end, the Human Rights Institute at Kean was established to shine a light on human rights issues and violations across the globe, while inspiring the next generation of activists to create a more just and peaceful world.
We do this in a number of ways – through our Human Rights Learning Community; coursework and curricula aimed at promoting understanding and tolerance; special events including lectures, book discussions and film screenings; exhibits in our Human Rights Institute Gallery; and our annual International Human Rights Conference.
