Partners for change at the intersection of academics and advocacy.


Projects and Publications

The Rapoport Center endeavors to bring about sustained attention to critical issues on the leading edge of human rights scholarship and advocacy through the development of a unique brand of human rights research that is multidisciplinary, critical, theoretically innovative, empirically and practically informed. For this reason, the Rapoport Center works to publish work that will inform, equip, and spur on the study and practice of human rights at the University of Texas and abroad.
