Resilient Rights - NNHRR Toogdag 2024 |
As human rights scholars, we may have become used - maybe too much so - to seeing the mostly gloomy side of human rights in the world: stories of violations, backsliding, shrinking and pressure. Yet, in spite of all of this, there are reasons for optimism still. To turn our mindset upside down, the theme of this year's Toogdag, the Dutch annual human rights conference, was Resilient

Rights: Tools for Justice and Inclusion. Participants were invited to take this alternative look at their field, bot just as a thought experiment, but also as an incentive for persevering. 'Toogdag' is the annual flagship event of the Netherlands Network for Human Rights Research, which unites researchers from all law schools in the Netherlands working on human rights. This year's edition took place on 27 June, co-hosted by SIM and Utrecht Law School. A full day of inspiring lectures, presentations and panel discussions, preceded by a workshop for PhD researchers, brought dozens of researchers together across specialisations. With working groups on migration, climate change, new technologies, and business, the Network's 500 members engage across institutions - its vibrancy is a reason for hope itself. I wish all our readers of the SIM Newsletter a good Summer! |

SIM Peter Baehr Lecture 2024 |
This year, the SIM Peter Baehr lecture took place before Summer, in order to be part of the Toogdag.

It was delivered by professor Eva Brems, of Ghent University, and entitled - along the lines of the theme of the Toogdag - The State of Human Rights: an Attempt at Optimism. In her enthusing

and engaging lecture, professor Brems traced not only the different pathways towards optimism in current human rights, but also illustrated this by quotes and thoughts of her colleagues. She argued looking beyond the current dire 'snapshot' of human rights in the world, beyond institutions and outcomes only, and beyond the usual spaces. When doing so, one may see what she called the 'full movie', which includes seeing human rights flourishing in people and processes. The lecture will be published in one of the upcoming issues of the Netherlands Quarterly of Human Rights. |

On 13-15 March, Brianne McGonigle Leyh took part in Justice Vision’s conference on Victims and Transitional Justice at Ghent University in Belgium, which brought together leading scholars in the field of transitional justice. Increasingly, practitioners are turning to participatory approaches as a promising way to make advances regarding the rights of victims and achieving justice for past serious human rights abuses. However, little is known about how to organize this participation in practice or under which conditions alleged benefits (for individual victims-participants or for society at large) are likely to materialize. Tine Destrooper’s Justice Victims project sought to tackle these questions. Brianne chaired a session on victims and international criminal justice and presented her research on victims and truth commissions in the United States of America. |
