Law Program presents: Hampshire at The Hague
7:00pm Thursday April 28th, FPH 102
Light snacks and refreshments provided.

Join us for a report from The Hague by the Jan Term 11 class, 
International Human Rights Tribunals. Ten students from Hampshire and 
the Five Colleges watched ongoing trials at the International Criminal 
Court, the criminal tribunal for Yugoslavia, and the UN's International 
Court of Justice, and met with court officials and human rights 
advocates. The two-week visit included relevant museums and historical 
sites, research and writing, and time for sampling the many rich 
cultural offerings of the Netherlands.

This will be a very informal opportunity to hear about the important 
human rights legal work that goes on in The Hague, and about other 
aspects of the trip, directly from the students who participated. If you 
are interested in human rights, war crimes and justice,  and especially 
if you would like to consider taking this course in the future, this 
will be a great event to distract you from all the work you have to do 
before the end of the semester.
