ABOUT CONFERENCE

International Conference on  Human Rights and Gender Justice in the 21st Century is being organized by the Narayan School of Law, Gopal Narayan Singh University, on 08-09 April 2022 ( Rescheduled from 11-12 Feb 2022, due to COVID and State Government Guidelines). The aim of this International Conference is to bring together academicians, students, human rights activists and other intellectuals on one platform to discuss the various issues concerning gender justice and human rights in the 21st Century and to discuss the measures to address such issues.

THEME:

Human rights are the basic rights that every human is entitled to and even though humans have succeeded in reaching the moon and have technologically advanced yet we have failed as a society to ensure and guarantee this basic right to everyone. These rights cannot be taken away but certainly are restricted and has become a privilege in the hands of some. In today’s global village gender is not just limited to the old school idea of male and female or just defined by the biology of the human body, gender has acquired a vast meaning and has many faces to it. This broadened horizon of gender has created many gaps between genders and that indeed has led to many human rights violations. The aim of this Conference is to bring together nationally and internationally acclaimed academicians, students, human rights activists and other intellectuals on one platform to discuss the various issues concerning gender justice and human rights and to discuss the measures to curb such issues and envision an India where Human Rights are protected, respected and fulfilled.
