Inside the Issues 2.25 - Human Rights and Conflict Resolution

In the final episode of the second season of Inside the Issues, host David Welch talks to Conrad Grebel University College's Lowell Ewert on the conceptual links between peace and human rights law. "These two concepts desperately need each other in order to create the humane and just world that we want," Ewert says. He goes on to outline the potential for human rights to be contextualized in different situations, while defining key principles that need to be maintained to ensure basic protections are in place.
