Pattern Analysis as a Tool for Human Rights Investigations: A Practice-Oriented Reflection
May 19, 2025
11:00 am - 12:30 pm
WCC; 3015 Room

On May 19 in WCC 3015, join us for a deep-dive workshop with Camilo Eduardo Umana Hernandez, former Deputy Minister of Justice of Colombia, as he presents his draft paper on pattern analysis as an investigative tool. This workshop will illuminate the methodological tools that Umana developed during his work as researcher with the Colombian Truth Commission. He will offer practice-derived and comparative insights and guidelines on identifying systemic patterns and understanding their broader implications for justice and advocacy.
The draft paper that will serve as the foundation for the workshop will be uploaded on the event page of the HRP website (see event URL). We welcome your feedback during the session, whether you are attending in person or virtually through Zoom. An email address will also be included in the draft paper for those who prefer to submit written feedback.
