Human Rights Cities PT 1: Why do cities make human rights commitments?

What is a Human Rights City? Our podcast "On Human Rights" is happy to present a two part special on the topic of human rights cities. Human Rights Cities is growing concept and movement that anchors human rights in cities and local context – in the daily lives of people. But what does this actually mean? In the first episode, we sit down with our Director Morten Kjaerum to discuss the past, present and future of human rights cities. Kjaerum is a board member of the Human Rights Cities Network and has written and co-written several publications on human rights cities.
