On October 2nd and 3rd, the University of Dayton will host an international human rights conference. Representatives of leading human rights and philanthropic foundations, and other educational and advocacy institutions will convene for two days of lectures and discussions on sustainable development, climate justice, corporate social responsibility, and the funding of human rights and development projects. 

Mark Ensalaco is the research director at the University of Dayton’s Human Rights Center.  This week we met to talk more about the focus of this year’s conference.
