The Center for the Study of Law and Genocide promotes legal scholarship on genocide and mass violations of human rights with a particular focus on improving legal resources both in the United States as well as internationally. The center trains current and future legal practitioners to help victims of genocide and mass violations of human rights achieve a measure of justice.
Loyola’s Center for the Study of Law and Genocide is the first center of its kind at any US law school. It couples intellectual research and practical advocacy with the aim of helping victims achieve justice.
