Welcome to The Human Rights Podcast from the Irish Centre for Human Rights at the University of Galway. Here at the Centre, we are fortunate to be visited each year by an array of world-leading practitioners, researchers and policy-makers in the field of human rights and its associated disciplines. We also have a vibrant community at the ICHR and more broadly in the University of Galway's academic staff, postdoctoral and doctoral scholars, and postgraduate and undergraduate students focusing on human rights. We want to bring you some of their insights and invite you in to some of the debates and discussions that go on here during the year.
We hope you enjoy listening to this podcast. Please visit our website and contact us at humanrights@nuigalway.ie with your thoughts or queries.
