Jobs

  • Two positions are available at Physicians for Human Rights in their Program on Sexual Violence in Conflict Zones.
  • The University of Dayton School of Law is seeking candidates for the position of adjunct professor of law for its collaboration with the University of Dayton Human Rights Center.  As a leader in the global human rights community, the Center searches for transformative solutions to systemic patterns of global injustice.

    This adjunct position affords a unique opportunity for attorneys with an interest and expertise in promoting human rights to teach, train and oversee law students working with the Center to research and analyze the legal aspects of real-world human rights projects.   For example, students may be asked to research the legal issues involved in a peace and reconciliation process or forced labor and produce memoranda outlining their findings and recommendations. The position requires intensive individual instruction and supervision of students and coordination with the Center. If the ideal candidate is not in the Dayton area, that person could work with students using distance learning technology.    If interested, please contact Associate Dean Lori Shaw (lshaw1@udayton.edu).
