In November 2025, the Human Rights Center at Seoul National University will host a three-part academic seminar series under the theme:
<Rethinking Ecological Crisis: Multidimensional Reflections Across Human Rights, Justice, and Gender>
This seminar series aims to explore today’s ecological crisis from the intersection of human rights, gender, and justice discourses. By interpreting ecology through the language of human rights, and (re)imagining human rights through the sensitivities of gender and ecology, we seek to foster interdisciplinary dialogue at the intersection where the human and non-human, the present and the future, regional inequalities, gender inequalities, and global responsibilities converge.
Through this, we hope to explore an ethics of coexistence and equality.
We warmly invite you to join us for the first session of this meaningful series.
