The international training programme Human Rights for Development (HR4DEV) is a joint initiative of two Flemish interuniversity partnerships: the Flemish Interuniversity Research Network on Law and Development (LAW&DEV) and the Children’s Rights Knowledge Centre (KeKi), in cooperation with the Institute of Development Policy and Management (University of Antwerp). The Children’s Rights Knowledge Centre (KeKi) is an interdisciplinary centre, supported by an interuniversity platform of researchers affiliated with the following institutions: the University of Antwerp (Prof. Dr. Wouter Vandenhole), the Free University of Brussels (Prof. Dr. Els Dumortier), Ghent University/Free University of Brussels (Dr. Rudi Roose), University College Ghent (Drs. Didier Reynaert) and the University of Leuven (Prof. Dr. Johan Put).
The training programme Human Rights for Development aims at promoting knowledge, insight and skills in the field of human rights (including children’s rights) and at developing young leaders in policy, practice and academia, to enable them to pass on this knowledge and skills to their own society (according to the train-the-trainers model), on the one hand, and to stimulate critical and strategic reflection on the integration of human rights (including children’s rights) in their professional activities, on the other.
