Centre for Human Rights Research 2.82

The Centre for Human Rights Research (CHRR) brings together people and organizations – both within and outside the University of Manitoba – to enhance interdisciplinary and collaborative research capacity, create richer training opportunities for students, and facilitate the fusion of research-driven knowledge, public policy and intellectual debate on issues related to human rights and social justice.

The centre aims to facilitate research that is both academically rigorous and accessible to the public.

Human rights research and teaching has been identified by the University of Manitoba as one of its strategic priorities, at a time when Winnipeg is also preparing to become home to the new Canadian Museum for Human Rights.
