Protest and the Academy: Assembly Rights and Freedom of Association on University Campuses

Join the International Human Rights Clinic for a discussion with the United Nations’ Special Rapporteur on freedom of peaceful assembly and of association, Gina Romero. Universities around the world, including Harvard, continue to grapple with the role of, and response to, campus protest actions. In conversation with Clinical Professor Susan Farbstein, the Special Rapporteur will explore how international law understands the rights to peaceful assembly and association on university campuses. Professor Gerald Neuman, the J. Sinclair Armstrong Professor of International, Foreign, and Comparative Law, will introduce the Special Rapporteur and frame the discussion.
