Symposium: Evidentiary regimes of UN Treaty Bodies: Perspectives from research and practice

Description: 

The DISSECT project led by Prof. Marie-Benedicte Dembour which investigates evidence in international human rights adjudication is delighted to announce the call for papers for the upcoming symposium "Evidentiary regimes of UN Treaty Bodies: Perspectives from research and practice" on 15-16 May 2023 in Ghent, Belgium. We welcome both legal (e.g. doctrinal, comparative, theoretical, critical) and interdisciplinary perspectives (intersecting with or firmly grounded in e.g. ethnographic, sociological, or political theory approaches). Furthermore, we are interested in "narrow" and "broad" questions, whether they explore the current state of the art, past practice, or future trajectories. The deadline for abstract submissions is 15 November 2022. More information on the CFP can be found under https://dissect.ugent.be/events/symposium/. If you have any further questions, feel free to get in touch via dissect.erc@ugent.be.
