Human Rights Forum

University of Nebraska at Omaha
As wildfires and drought have worsened due to climate change, human rights are increasingly impacted by stewardship of land and the crops that grow on it. The High Commissioner for Human Rights has said: 'For many people, land is a source of livelihood, and is central to economic rights.
Land is also often linked to peoples' identities, and so is tied to social and cultural rights.' In this HRF, panelists from the Tri-Faith Initiative and UNO Native Studies, who will discuss the Tri-Faith garden project as a means of land stewardship and interreligious cooperation, in conversation with Native American perspectives on land and food sovereignty. Students from Dr. Laura Alexander 's Religion and Human Rights course will also reflect on their work this semester in the Tri-Faith garden and orchard.
Sponsors: Goldstein Center for Human Rights, Goldstein Family Community Chair in Human Rights, UNO Religious Studies, UNO Native Studies.
The Human Rights Forum is held 2-3 times per semester and brings together panels of experts to discuss pressing issues in human rights. Sponsored by the Goldstein Center for Human Rights and Goldstein Family Community Chair in Human Rights.
