Human Rights Institute | Binghamton University

The Binghamton University Human Rights Institute (HRI) advances research, teaching and community engagement in human rights. We bring a transdisciplinary human rights perspective to important social problems and contribute to evidence-based policymaking as well as critical discourses in human rights. Drawing upon Binghamton University's research excellence and New York state's rich history advocating and advancing human rights, HRI advances scholarship and develops rights-based initiatives to impact public policy, scholarship, and teaching in New York state, the United States and internationally.
