The Human Rights Week of the Faculty of Applied Social Sciences is designed to encourage students, practitioners and scientists to:

  • consciously act within the framework of human rights when it comes to choosing values and to decision making
  • delve into tasks, questions and dilemmas arising from the conscious relation between Social Sciences and the human rights profession 
  • have a critical view on actions as well as the history of the profession in order to uncover and stop the violation and ignorance of human rights in professional contexts.
