Human Rights in Community: A Student Workshop with Foundation Cristosal

Meet Noah Bullock, the Executive Director of Foundation Cristosal, an independent, Episcopal NGO that partners with the people of El Salvador in their struggle for peace, justice, and reconciliation. Foundation Cristosal approaches issues such as forced displacement by violence, building capacities of local leadership to promote democratic processes in El Salvador, and creating spaces for mutual exchange between Central and North Americans through a rights based approach that recognizes at its core the inherent dignity, equality, and inalienable rights of every human being.

The Haas Center for Public Service and the WSD HANDA Center for Human Rights and International Justice invite students to contribute ideas, alongside our community partner, for sustainable responses to grave challenges to human rights and development in the Northern Triangle.
