Can regional solidarity change national law? Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) suggests it can. Today, BiH is only the third country in the world to legally recognise children born of wartime sexual violence as a distinct category of civilian victims of war. That achievement reflects years of determined advocacy by survivors, civil society and human rights defenders.

A new toolkit developed by of the European Regional Master in Democracy and Human Rights in South East Europe compares the legal frameworks of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, showing how regional learning can advance recognition, reparations and rights for one of the most overlooked groups affected by armed conflict. Developed with the guidance of Right Livelihood Katarina Kruhonja, it demonstrates how collaboration across borders can translate human rights research into practical policy recommendations.

This is also a reminder of one of the Global Campus network's greatest strengths: when Global Campus alumni, practitioners and partners work across borders, ideas become policy, and local experience can shape international human rights practice.

Congratulations to project leads alumni Iris Knežević and Tarik Ekmeščić, together with Ajna Jusić and all contributors, on this crucial resource.

🎤 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝗷𝗼𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘁𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲?

That is one of the ideas explored by Global Campus of Human Rights alumna Amanda Rossini Martins in 'Joy is Resistance: Conversations on Human Rights Education', a series produced by our partner United Nations Human Rights.

A Brazilian lawyer, climate and gender activist and PhD researcher, Amanda describes human rights education as a “platform and a language” for transforming the world—and for connecting struggles that can otherwise remain fragmented.

Drawing particularly on her Latin American experience, she reflects on how human rights education can help people recognise themselves and one another across different struggles, transforming individual experiences into collective strength. For Amanda, it is also about everyday freedoms: feeling safe, speaking out, protesting, connecting with nature—and being free to laugh, dance and simply be together.

And that is where joy enters the picture. Joy, connection and belonging are not separate from human rights activism: they can help sustain it. Spaces for human rights education can also offer a way to reconnect—with others and with ourselves—when the scale of the challenges makes change seem beyond our reach.

🎧 Listen to Amanda on why human rights education can be “disruptive with reason and passion”—and why joy matters to the work of changing the world.

Unpaid caregiving is often treated as invisible labour — essential, yet unrecognised by law, policy or economic accounting. Global Campus Asia-Pacific | APMA alumna Bidya Maharjan set out to change that in Nepal, where family members caring for people with have long carried this work with no formal support and no say in the systems meant to serve them.

The result, developed through the Global Campus Alumni Cross-Regional Projects 2026-27, is Nepal's first co-created toolkit for unpaid dementia caregivers — combining practical guidance with an advocacy brief pressing for their greater recognition within Nepal's .

What distinguishes this project is how it was built. Bidya worked directly with caregivers through Care Circle sessions and in-depth conversations, ensuring the toolkit reflects their lived experience. She credits 2010 Right Livelihood Laureate Shrikrishna Upadhyay and his organisation SAPPROS-Nepal as central to shaping that participatory vision, alongside fellow APMA alumnus Giwoong Son, who helped translate the project's concept into accessible, culturally grounded illustrations.

A big thank you to Right Livelihood, whose support made the connection with Laureate Upadhyay possible — a reminder of what the Global Campus–Right Livelihood partnership is designed to do: pair decades of grassroots expertise with practitioners already shaping human rights work on the ground.
