2 International Human Rights Forum Lucerne (IHRF) The essential aims of the International Human Rights Forum Lucerne (IHRF) are human rights and their protection. Thus, the IHRF promotes the public debate on human rights and gives the different political, business, academic, and societal actors a forum where they can meet and discuss current human rights issues together. Various formats of collaboration and discourse ensure that not only a dialogue is established but also that concrete projects are initiated and carried through. Human Rights and History 3 How has the historical development of human rights contributed to the foundation of the normative universality of human rights? 3 What further development of human rights can be expected? 3 What consequences does a critical view on the history of human rights have for human rights education in school? 3 How can historical learning and human rights education work together as well as enrich and complement each other? These and other questions will be debated in the discourse about human rights and history at the 10 th IHRF by prominent actors and renowned international experts. Students Meet Human Rights To ensure the continuity of the human rights tradition, the IHRF aims not only to enable the participation of current players, but also of those of the future. For this purpose, students will work on a human rights theme in connection with the IHRF. The culmination of this work will take place at the Forum itself, where the students will have the opportunity to participate and to meet and talk to experts as well as human rights activists. Students Meet Human Rights involves students from different high schools and professional schools in the discussions and events of the Forum with the intention of fostering an intensive learning process regarding human rights. New information and communication technologies will be used to enhance the learning experience as well as to allow young people to prepare for participating in the workshops and other events of the Forum. SPECIAL Workshops Participants are able to choose from a variety of SPECIAL Workshops according to their personal interests and so focus on and learn more about a specific aspect in the domain of human rights: 3 Economy 3 Human Rights Education 3 Law 3 Philosophy 3 Social Work 2 3
