Event Outline

This event is organised by NUS Centre for International Law. Professor Helfer will identify the facilitating conditions that have, until recently, supported the international human rights system. He will also assess the distinctive challenges that populism poses to IHRL institutions, and review a range of legal and political tools that might be deployed to address those challenges and explore their potential efficacy and risks.
