The Center for Southeast Asian Studies organizes and sponsors a number of events such as lectures, film screening, workshops, symposia, conferences, exhibits, and performances throughout the year. Several of these events are in collaboration with other U-M units, and are often free and open to the public. To see what we have planned for this semester, please visit our 2020 Lecture Series page.
For over 10 years, the World History Initiative and now the World History and Literature Initiative has helped World History and English Language Arts teachers deepen their content knowledge, enhance their pedagogical practices, and acquire new resources and instructional materials to engage their students in historical thinking.
Our three-day conference this year focuses on the issues involved in defining, promoting, and enacting human rights on the global and local scales. Working with scholars at the University of Michigan, participants will address issues entailed in constructing statements and policies on human dignity and human rights, the legal and political enforcement of these policies, and the relationships between the global and the local.
Our goal is to develop knowledge and insights about human rights across the global and to share ways to encourage students to think about these issues. As has been our practice, the presentations and resources used in the workshop are made available to participants for use in their own classrooms.
Registration Deadline: Friday, June 10, 2016

Sponsors include the University of Michigan’s International Institute, School of Education, and Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.
