Human Rights and Humanitarian Law: The Quest for Universality

This volume has emerged from a colloquium organized by the Graduate Institute of International Studies and its Program for the Study of International Organization(s). It attempts to project an integrated approach for helping those who are in need and to discuss ways of guaranteeing greater protection of certain universal values that underlie such help. The text is a result of ideas shared between three major organizations in this field: the UN Center for Human Rights, the International Committee of the Red Cross and the United Nations High Commission for Refugees as well as outside experts on the relationship between the different protection rights.
