The International Law and Human Rights Unit, part of the School of Law and Social Justice at the University of Liverpool, warmly invites postgraduate research students to its Annual Postgraduate Conference in International Law and Human Rights, which will take place between 15th-16th June 2026. This year, the conference theme is The Future of the International Legal Order. We are happy for the conference theme to be broadly construed.
Call for papers
We encourage paper or poster proposals from postgraduate students specialising in international law, human rights or related subjects and welcome contributions from doctrinal, normative, historical, conceptual and comparative perspectives. The conference offers a unique opportunity for postgraduate students to present and discuss their work in a stimulating and friendly academic environment, among peers with similarly oriented research interests.
Please note that if your abstract is accepted, there will be a conference participation fee of £60.00. The expectation is that your home institution will pay the fee. If you are unable to secure funding, please let us know, and we can consider a fee waiver in exceptional cases.
We look forward to welcoming you to the University of Liverpool!
