The Center for the Study of Genocide and Human Rights (CGHR) is a

Alexander Hinton[2] and Associate Director Nela Navarro[3] and involves the work of a team of visiting scholars, project leaders, affiliated faculty and students, and partners across the United States
and the globe.

Mission

According to CGHR's website, the Center's mission "is to understand and prevent genocide and mass atrocity crimes. In doing so, CGHR takes a critical prevention approach. On the one hand, we grapple with critical human rights issues, including the most pressing 21st century challenges that may give rise to genocide, atrocity crimes, and related interventions. On the other hand, we use a critical lens to rethink assumptions and offer alternative ideas and solutions."[1]

Programs

CGHR has a number of research initiatives related to genocide and human rights, including its UNESCO Chair in Genocide Prevention and projects on U.S.-MidEast Dialogue, Forgotten Genocides, Human Rights Education, Raphael Lemkin, and Truth in the Americas.[4] Most recently, the Center convened the 2019-24 Global Consortium on Bigotry and Hate with eight international partners.[5]
