The Global Campus of Human Rights (GC) is the world’s largest network of universities teaching democracy and human rights, with over 100 members in all continents. The GC is organized in seven Regional Hubs with seven Master Programmes located in Venice for Europe, in Sarajevo/Bologna for Southeast Europe, in Yerevan for the Caucasus, in Pretoria for Africa, in Buenos Aires for Latin America and the Caribbean, in Beirut for the Arab world, and in Bangkok for Asia-Pacific. The GC is funded by the European Union as a priority action of its Instrument fo Democracy and Human Rights. Since 2019 the GC has been assisting the National University of Timer-Leste in the development of human rights education and the setting up of its Human Rights Centre (HRC-UNTL) with support of the EU. The goal of this new local institution is to contribute to the promotion and protection of human rights, democracy, and development by providing training, international networking and research activities.
