The use of AI represents both an opportunity and a challenge for human rights protection. Its ability to analyse vast amounts of data can expedite investigations and enhance access to justice, potentially streamlining proceedings.
However, concerns persist regarding AI’s potential biases, transparency issues, and the need to balance efficiency with safeguarding human rights, highlighting the necessity for careful implementation and oversight in human rights proceedings. In interactive sessions, FAU students will explore chances and challenges and discuss with members of the three regional human rights courts, namely Justice Dennis Dominic Adjei and Registrar Robert Eno (African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights), Judge Verónica Gómez (Inter-American Court of Human Rights), and Judge Tim Eicke (European Court of Human Rights).
