Human Rights Institute at Kean University

The mission of the Human Rights Institute at Kean University is to raise awareness of human rights violations worldwide, and to produce curricula, material and seminars that promote tolerance. In May, Kean’s Human Rights Institute formally opened its doors at a dedication ceremony featuring Kerry Kennedy, co-founder of the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Human Rights. The space includes a state-of-art gallery that highlights issues, artwork and publications related to human rights violations and victories around the world.
