Special Issue on Human Rights and Social Justice


Human Rights and Social Justice is a multidisciplinary field that explores ethical, political, social, and legal issues related to human rights and equality. Human rights refer to the basic freedoms and entitlements that every person is entitled to, regardless of their race, gender, religion, or cultural background. Social justice, on the other hand, is concerned with ensuring that all individuals have equal access to the opportunities and resources necessary for a fulfilling life. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in the area of Human Rights and Social Justice.


In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Human Rights and Social Justice. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:


  • Discrimination based on race, gender, and sexual orientation
  • Human rights violations in conflict zones
  • Role of NGOs in promoting human rights
  • Social justice and access to education
  • Human trafficking and modern-day slavery

  • Criminal justice reform
  • Right to healthcare
  • Women's rights
  • Disability rights
