Dr Melanie Klinkner will spend Trinity Term at the Bonavero Institute of Human Rights, University of Oxford, to concentrate on a programme work concerned with ‘testing’ and ‘refining’ arguments in relation to ongoing research into the right to the truth and progressing ways of developing mass grave protection guidelines.

As part of its mission, the Institute seeks to integrate human rights research and practice within the Law Faculty and the University more broadly.
