E.MA is an intensive one-year course aimed at educating up to 100 professionals annually in the field of human rights and democratisation.

E.MA is the foundation for a successful career in national, international, governmental, inter- and non-governmental organisations, as well as academic institutions dealing with human rights and democratisation.

E.MA is both a residential and an exchange programme, the first semester  from September 2016 to January 2017 is held at EIUC premises in Venice and the second one from February to July 2017 takes place in one of the 41 partecipating universities within the members states of the European Union.

After graduation E.MAlumni can be found worldwide in key international human rights organisations and academic institutions, but also in field missions or back home working for their own Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Development Aid agencies or national NGOs.
