Universal: Renewing Human Rights in a Fractured World
The world is facing a deepening climate crisis, the legacy of genocide and mass atrocities, and a rise in hate and division. There is an urgent need to renew the promise of universal human rights, both in our communities and globally.

Alex Neve’s 2025 CBC Massey Lectures examine that challenge, highlighting the importance of people power and solidarity. In this talk, Neve will outline the themes of the lectures, including the fractured state of the world, the importance of universality and a hopeful path forward.

*Students are invited to drop by the Faculty Lounge, rm 500 from 3 to 4 pm for an opportunity to connect with Professor Neve in informal one-to-one and small-group conversations before the lecture. Don’t miss this unique opportunity!*
