Should borders matter when it comes to human rights? While the idea of borders is fundamental to the concept of statehood, sovereignty, authority, identity, etc., the relationship between borders and human rights is an intricate one. Borders are considered to be a justification for limiting the provision of human rights, However, increasingly, questions are being raised about the moral coherence of this justification, especially in today's transnational world.

The workshop aims to explore the complex connections of borders and human rights from a broad and interdisciplinary perspective, including practical, legal and theoretical discussions.
Papers presented in the conference will be published, subject to double-blind peer review, in the Law and Ethics of Human Rights.
