Further, students will analyze the main problems and challenges to human rights in the 21st century: pandemics, economic and financial crisis, food and water crisis, armed conflicts, failed states, poverty, climate change, organized crime, terrorism, economic inequalities, new authoritarianism, new technologies, etc.
Finally, the class will address the relationship between the arts and human rights.
