The Pozen Family Center for Human Rights supports research projects that allow University of Chicago faculty to explore critical dimensions of human rights thought and practice. The Pozen Center encourages collaborative work across disciplines and schools, and projects that draw students and the broader University community into the research work of faculty.
Projects can be from one to three years. They might include working group meetings, performances, workshops, conferences, and edited volumes. Alternatively, a project could operate as a laboratory designed to offer solutions to a particular human rights problem. The Pozen Center offers financial, strategic, and administrative support for these projects.
The Pozen Center is now accepting applications for projects beginning July 1, 2017. Proposals must be submitted by Monday, January 9, 2017 at 5:00pm CST. Applicants will be notified of decisions by the end of the Winter Quarter 2017.
