Welcome to our LL.M. Program in Intercultural Human Rights, a globally unique program designed to offer in-depth instruction on the critical issue of our time: the protection of human dignity across political, social, economic, and cultural lines. Excelling since 2001, and widely regarded as one of the world's best in the field, the program provides the most up-to-date legal insights on theory, policy, and practical developments in the arena of human rights.

Our mostly one-week compact courses are designed to offer the highest quality of legal education in the combined areas of international law, international human rights law, humanitarian law, universal and regional systems of human rights protection, as well as complaint procedures.

Through these intensive courses and supplementary offerings, students are prepared for effective research, advocacy and practice in the field. In interactive dialogue, networking with distinguished faculty and their classmates from all over the globe students gain the best available inside knowledge of human rights in action.

Our LL.M. program, in the mold of the integrative law, science and policy approach developed at the Yale Law School, and widely known as the Policy-Oriented Jurisprudence, provides a sophisticated background in international law and prepares students for leadership positions in society, be them judicial, legislative, governmental or non-governmental. Our alumni testify to all this.

The faculty is one of worldwide distinction and includes top-level United Nations experts, chief legal advisors, judges, scholars and practitioners in the field, hailing from Yale University, as well as Athens, Berlin, Geneva, Strasbourg, Kinshasa, and Washington D.C. Their diversified legal backgrounds and experiences, their range of scholarship and academic excellence provide students with an intellectually challenging and multi-dimensional approach to education.

The program's setting in Miami, a city of international flavour and extraordinary cultural diversity, offers breathtaking natural treasures and beauty, a wealth of cultural attractions, sporting events, and an exciting intercultural environment.
