14th Annual AHRI Conference – “Emerging Research in Human Rights

Introduction

The 14^th Annual Conference took place in London on 9 and 10 September 2013 and was generously hosted by The Human Rights Consortium, School of Advanced Study, University of London.

The objective of the conference was to stimulate an open-ended discussion about the themes and activities to be pursued within the AHRI network in the years to come. To this aim, all AHRI members were invited to suggest topics for workshops, and as a result a number of workshops covering a diverse range of topical themes convened during the conference. Experts opened the sessions on both days with thematic panels in plenary. Please find below a description of each workshop and the summaries from the workshop discussions, which also include suggestions for future avenues as well as contact detail of the workshop chairs. The conference concluded with the annual AHRI Assembly Meeting, followed by a reception hosted by the Centre for the Study of Human Rights, LSE.
