Welcome to the Harvard Human Rights Journal

Since its foundation in 1988, the Harvard Human Rights Journal (“HHRJ” or “the Journal”) has provided a forum for a diverse array of human rights scholarship authored by legal scholars, practitioners, and law students. HHRJ intends to serve as the premier law student-edited legal publication focused on human rights law and policy, publishing content in print and online. The Journal aspires to publish content that sets the cutting edge of international human rights law, in both international and domestic contexts, exploring novel arguments and issues that advance the universal promise of human rights.
