of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century. Human Rights have been identified as the inherent values attached to the dignity and identity of all human beings. For a society to be just and civil, it must aspire to inculcate respect for human rights and the underlying principles in its legal systems to ensure that its members can explore their development potential freely.<\/p><p>With the advent of globalization, the nature of human rights has undergone a shift. Human rights concerns are no longer limited to the traditional struggles between the nation state and its citizens but must combat novel challenges of our chaotic times e.g. displacement, climate change, artificial intelligence and so on. Specialized study of human rights law has gained a renewed significance in all aspects of legal practice. A deeper understanding of the interplay between human rights principles and corporate action, or environmental activism or even technological advancement has become important for development of law and policy in varied fields.<\/p><p>The Human Rights specialization prepares the students for varied career opportunities in national and international arena that range from traditional advocacy roles to more advanced policy restructuring touching upon all aspects of legal reform.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0bed4a1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0bed4a1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What makes our LL.M. in Human Rights special?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-599e58d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"599e58d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The LL.M. in Human Rights offered at JGLS is a forward-looking programme designed to equip students with the skill set to engage with contemporary challenges of the changing world order. The course structure of the LL.M. programme focuses on the human rights concerns arising from business activities, technology, migration, climate change and much more. The course offerings are unique and aim to expand upon conventional human rights discourse. The Human Rights specialization will train future legal professionals to navigate the ever-evolving value systems and current human rights concerns.\u00a0 JGLS offers an opportunity to learn from international faculty who will bring forward perspectives from around the world, which are relevant for resolving these topical issues. Our modern world is closely integrated and we must look beyond national systems to overcome human rights related concerns.
