About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today we're talking with Dr. Sofia Rodriguez, an expert in human rights and justice, about her Certificate Programme in Human Rights and Justice. Dr. Rodriguez, can you tell us what inspired you to create this course? GUEST: Absolutely, I've seen a growing need for comprehensive education on human rights law and justice mechanisms. This course aims to equip students, activists, and professionals with the necessary knowledge and skills to promote social justice. HOST: That's wonderful. How does this programme address current trends in human rights and justice? GUEST: We delve into topics like international humanitarian law, gender equality, and human rights violations, providing a holistic understanding of the current human rights landscape. HOST: Speaking of human rights violations, what are some challenges faced in this field? GUEST: One major challenge is the lack of awareness and understanding of human rights issues. Our course addresses this by developing critical analysis and advocacy skills in students. HOST: That's crucial. Now, let's talk about the future. What do you see as the future of human rights and justice? GUEST: I believe the future lies in empowering individuals with the knowledge and skills to stand up for human rights. Our programme is a step towards that, creating champions for human rights. HOST: Dr. Rodriguez, thank you for your time and sharing your insights about this important programme.
