Objectives This human rights course takes a broad conception of human rights as its basis – what HG Wells once said was the belief that everyone is entitled to the “nourishment… care and attention needed to realise [their] full possibilities of physical and mental health from birth to death”.

It looks at how far human rights are enshrined in definitions of citizenship and to what extent they form the basis of national and international law. In addition, it explores the extent to which human rights are enshrined in and supported by a deeper politics and culture, by institutions, structures, movements and values.
