Oscar Pérez de la Fuente — Sun, 10 Apr 2022 19:23:00 +0200

ADAM MICKIEWICZ UNIVERSITY IN POZNAŃ AND IPSA RC26 HUMAN RIGHTS HAVE THE HONOR TO INVITE YOU TO THE PANEL “KEY CHALLENGES FOR HUMAN RIGHTS FROM EUROPEAN PERSPECTIVE IN 2022” as part of the 22ND INTERNATIONAL ACADEMIC CONFERENCE IN THE SERIES EUROPE OF THE 21ST CENTURY ON EUROPE’S GREEN DEAL.A COMMUNITY OF SECURITY AND VALUES (23-24 JUNE, 2022, COLLEGIUM POLONICUM, SŁUBICE, POLAND)

The conference participants will involve scholars representing academic and research centres in Poland and abroad, journalists, politicians, and other experts interested in European issues, the European Union, and its relations with its immediate and broader surroundings. The conference will be held in Collegium Polonicum in Słubice, a joint research and teaching centre of Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań and European University Viadrina in Frankfurt on the Oder. The Collegium Polonicum building is located on the Polish side of this border river. The meeting in Słubice will provide a platform for presenting the results of studies into the contemporary problems of the Old Continent from the perspective of human rights. We would like, in particular, to discuss the issue of the utmost importance and topicality for inhabitants of Europe, namely Human Rights and the Rights of Nature and the Environment (e.g., animal rights movement, having a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment as a human right).

Another topic addressed by the participants of the IPSA RC26 panel will involve the restoration of an EU based on fundamental rights and respect for the rule of law within the EU’s community of values. It will also be an opportunity to explore the other key challenges for human rights in Europe in the current situation, e.g., human rights violations during the war in Ukraine. The language of the conference is Polish; however, the language of the IPSA RC26 panel will be English. Papers presented by speakers and the discussion during the plenary session in the course of the meeting will be simultaneously translated into English. The conference organisers will provide participants with accommodation and boarding and an opportunity to publish papers approved for print by reviewers. Due to restrictions imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic, the conference will be held in a hybrid mode.

Those who have been vaccinated are kindly invited to Słubice, where sessions will be held in Collegium Polonicum. Those who fail to fulfil this condition and others unable to attend in person will be provided with an opportunity to take part in the conference online via the Zoom application. The organisers reserve the right to change the participation conditions if the epidemiological situation deteriorates.

The COVID-19 pandemia has changed many aspects of human and social life. It proves to be an unprecedented experience. This crisis requires unusual solutions, regulations, and a strong response to limit the disease’s spread and protect societies. However, it could be an excuse to introduce oppressive surveillance and undermine human rights, e.g., political, social, and cultural rights, especially the freedom of expression, the right to privacy. The W.H.O. proclamation of the COVID-19 as pandemic on March 11, 2020, led many countries to declare a state of emergency and grant extraordinary powers to their governments.

It is expected that during the workshop, the speakers will consider and analyze the impact of COVID-19 on diverse aspects of protection of human rights, in a specific condition of democracy and political rights under lockdown in numerous regions and states, and also the right to health and health-care, equitable access to vaccination, as well as the influence of the health crisis on freedom of expression and media freedom, freedom of movement and privacy.

Due to the pandemic restrictions, the organizers consider all modes of conducting the workshop, i.e., off-line, on-line, and a hybrid version.Each paper-giver will make a 15-minute presentation. Once the panelists have concluded their appearances, the discussant will provide a brief set of oral comments (10-15 minutes). The panel chair will then open the floor to discussion and questions from the audience (45-60 minutes).

This Symposium will be organized in 5 panels, with the following topics:

a) Democracy and political rights under lockdown,

b) The right to health and health-care and equitable access to vaccination during COVID-19 pandemic,

c) The impact of the health crisis on freedom of expression and media freedom,

d) Freedom of movement and privacy in the time of COVID-19 pandemic, e) Key human rights during COVID-19 pandemic. Impact of COVID-19 on some aspects of human rights. Each panel will have a Chair and a Discussant.
