Human Rights Awareness Festival

Human Rights Awareness Festival


As the grand finale of an educational and motivational week dedicated to promoting the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, we present the Human Rights Awareness Festival. The goal of the festival is to fuse Human Rights education with world class entertainment in an effort to unite every member of the university. We hope to inspire students to furthur their own efforts and expand Human Rights activist groups on campuses nationwide. This event is an all day festival featuring nationwide tour bands as well as local and school acts. The festival will include several different genres of music to celebrate the diversity of Human Rights. Inspirational, positive Human Rights speakers and films will be presented during band changeovers and set breaks to capture the moment and motivate students to join the growing Human Rights movement. Human Rights related NGO's, student groups, and companies will have information booths set up to show students the opportunities involved in Human Rights and how they can get involved. Also all of the cultural groups at the University will be invited and encouraged to set up cultural displays to go along with the festival theme of celebrating the diversity of Human Rights.

The Human Rights Festival can range from an all day outdoor event with several perfomances to a 2-3 band indoor performance based upon each schools finacial capabilities, venue space, and expected climate. On our bands page we have included a list of Human Rights passionate bands with varying price ranges for each school to choose from.

The Human Rights Awareness Festival will include a handful of touring acts. There will be several perfromance slots available to student bands and performers from the school the tour is stopped at. If you would like your band or performance group to be booked at the festival please contact festival coordinator John Corkery.
