The International Human Rights Law Society aims to:
- generate public awareness about human rights through planning and hosting events focused on instances of human rights abuse;
- educate each other and the greater Quinnipiac community about human rights theory and its legal effect;
- build a community for future practitioners of human rights law by exploring resources and networking with non-profit and non-governmental organizations; and,
- engage in public advocacy or direct action campaigns to make a tangible difference in the community.
