Young-Sponsored Workshops

Workshops allow our faculty to bring experts to the Occidental campus to engage with students and faculty colleagues on topics of mutual research interest.

CROSS-CUTTING GLOBAL CONVERSATIONS ON HUMAN RIGHTS: INTERDISCIPLINARITY, INTERSECTIONALITY, AND INDIVISIBILITY September 26-27, 2019

Co-sponsored by Occidental College, University of Southern California, Arizona State University, and Indiana University.

The “Cross-Cutting Global Conversations on Human Rights: Interdisciplinarity, Intersectionality, and Indivisibility” workshop featured leading human rights scholars and practitioners from a remarkably broad range of disciplines, geographic positions, and points of view. This diversity brought new insights to controversial issues in human rights scholarship, and will pave the way for upcoming publications from workshop participants.
