The Project on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights at the Geneva Academy of
International Humanitarian Law and Human Rights organizes annually
professional training courses on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. The
Project has extensive experience in organizing two types of training aimed
at providing professionals with tailored knowledge on the protection of ESC
rights according to their level of experience. The “Training Course on
Understanding Economic, Social and Cultural Rights” is designed to introduce
participants to ESC rights, while the “Advanced Training Course on
Monitoring Economic, Social and Cultural Rights” is aimed at providing more
practical tools to advanced professionals in this area.

On this occasion, the Project proudly announces the organization of the *4th
annual Advanced Training Course on Monitoring Economic, Social and Cultural
Rights*.

The Training Course will take place in *Geneva*, Switzerland from *9-13 May
2011*.

The course is designed for professionals with advanced experience in working
on ESC rights. The course will most benefit representatives from NGOs,
national human rights institutions, governmental authorities, academia,
international organizations, and United Nations bodies.

The course aims to enhance the work of professionals by training them on
specific aspects related to monitoring ESC rights. The course will also
instruct participants on how advocacy tools, including, for example, human
rights indicators, budget analysis or litigation activities can be
effectively used to build monitoring policies that would be addressed not
only to domestic institutions, but also to international mechanisms mandated
to protect and promote ESC rights.
