Human Rights

Touch lives and create a long-term positive impact.

Human Rights is the “inherent dignity and the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family.”

Human rights are not granted by the State, nor stemmed from citizenship in a country. Human rights are rights that necessarily spring from being a member of the human species. While it is basic in all aspects, sadly, these rights are often neglected.

The Institute for Global Studies is one with human rights advocates in promoting fairness, dignity, equality, and respect to all humans, regardless of color, race, religion, or social class.

Be an intern and experience first-hand strategies in solving human rights issues and learn about best practices in your country of choice.

Connect with like-minded individuals from different parts of the world while improving your professional skills.
