UCL Human Rights Review

The UCL Student Human Rights Review is an annual academic journal edited by the students of University College London. It was first launched in 2008 as part of the UCL Student Human Rights Programme, and aims to collect and present human rights related articles from a wide range of academics, prominent practitioners and students. It was established to promote inter-disciplinary debate as part of an over-arching goal to foster a culture of human rights.
The current edition of the Review will be launched in October 2009. Issues discussed in the first edition of the Review cover a wide range of topics, and the current editorial team aims to make the 2009 issue even more comprehensive.
