Next to taking part in the regular Academy programme, members of the next generation, students, young professionals and the next voices in human rights are invited to join our exclusive sessions and to engage in first-hand discussions with local policy-makers and government officials on how action plans can help local governments be accountable.

Let us shape the future of human rights together!
