It is with great sadness and outrage that we share news of the assassination yesterday of Berta Cáceres, a Honduran indigenous and environmental rights activist.

While discussing tough human rights concerns, Pakistani lawyer and activist Hina Jilani is passionate and succinct.

UT students and professors gathered Monday afternoon for the Inequality and Human Rights seminar to discuss the existence of human rights in the age of inequality.

Three UT law students have been selected as Rapoport Center Human Rights Scholars.

Three UT undergraduate students will intern with the Rapoport Center during the fall semester.

The Ford Foundation has awarded the Center an initial two-year, $400,000 grant to jump-start a project to assess the use and potential of human rights law and discourse to address some of the structural causes of inequality.
