Diploma in Human Rights is a one-year law-oriented diploma that builds foundational understanding of human rights standards, their evolution, and their application in India. Students learn about the constitutional framework (especially Fundamental Rights, Directive Principles, and key legal remedies), major international instruments such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), ICCPR and ICESCR, and the role of institutions including courts, National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) and State Human Rights Commissions. The programme typically covers rights of women, children, persons with disabilities, refugees and minorities, along with issues like custodial justice, torture prevention, trafficking, labour rights and environmental rights. Emphasis is also placed on practical skills such as case study analysis, report writing, RTI-based information gathering, field exposure, and human rights documentation. The diploma benefits aspirants looking to work in advocacy, legal aid, community development, compliance and CSR, public policy support, or to strengthen their preparation for higher studies in law, criminology, social work, and public administration.
