The Center for Human Rights is established with the mission of promoting human rights through multidisciplinary research, training, and community service programs.
It was established in October 2008 as part of Addis Ababa University’s epistemological and structural shift from a primarily undergraduate studies institution to a research-oriented graduate university. The Center for Human Rights has the mission of advancing the rule of law, democratic governance, and human rights in Ethiopia through high-end research, teaching, and community services.
