CANCELLED Summer School | A Human Rights Perspective on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity

This summer school course aims to create insight into human rights law as it applies to sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression and sex characteristics (SOGIESC) issues.

It will identify key challenges and ways in which members of the LGBTIQA+ community do not yet fully and equally enjoy their human rights, and analyse the relevant legal standards in that regard.

Specifically, it will be studied how the interpretation of those standards has developed

• at a legislative level
• in the case-law of national and international courts
• in soft law instruments and quasi-judicial decisions
• and whether those developments have been moving towards or rather further away from full equality.
