Global Governance: Engaging New Norms and Emerging Challenges

This conference will address this theme of change – not only in the Middle East, but also globally. Thus, while there will be a number of panels and other events focused on the Middle East, a significant portion of the conference will deal with much broader contexts and issues, and paper submissions which address the broader theme in any context are welcome.  We also welcome, and indeed actively encourage, participation from non-academics who are involved in human rights practice.
