***Presentation of E.MA***

The European Master's Programme in Human Rights and Democratisation (E.MA) ‪http://www.emahumanrights.org‬ is a one-year interdisciplinary Joint Degree Master's Programme carried out by 41 European universities. It is organised by the European Inter-University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation (EIUC) ‪http://www.eiuc.org‬ and is the primary Programme of the European Union to educate professionals in the field of human rights and democratisation.
The E.MA programme reflects the indivisible links between human rights, democracy, peace and development with a practice-oriented approach.
The programme offers an action and policy-oriented approach to learning about international relations, law, philosophy, history and anthropology of human rights. Students have the opportunity to meet and be taught by leading academics representing the 41 E.MA participating universities, experts and representatives of international organisations (including the European Union, the United Nations, the Council of Europe and the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe-OSCE) and NGOs while studying in a multicultural environment.
E.MA students, upon completion of all course's components, are expected to gain both academic and practical skills: on the one hand, the ability to conduct independent and interdisciplinary academic research in relation to human rights and democratisation issues; on the other hand, skills which are relevant to human rights practitioners such as reporting, fact-finding, and monitoring.
The academic year of the European Master's Programme in Human Rights and Democratisation is divided into two semesters: the first semester (September to January) in Venice - Lido and the second (February to July) at an E.MA participating university situated in the European Union. 
The second part of the programme is conceived as a European exchange which implies that students will be hosted for the second semester activities in a university located in a country other than their own.
The E.MA Programme, being multidisciplinary, includes lectures, seminars, workshops, tutorials, skill-building sessions, and individual research.
