NSHSS is committed to partnering with the National Center for Civil and Human Rights to bring important opportunities and resources that support NSHSS scholars in their quest to fulfill their higher education goals, broaden their perspective on inclusion and diversity, increase their cultural literacy, and develop their leadership potential through community engagement. 

The Center tells stories of courageous individuals and activists from all over the world who are fighting for the fundamental rights of all people, and aims to provide visitors with an immersive and interactive experience. Using the power of narratives and storytelling, The Center explores human rights including issues of religion, women’s rights, sexual orientation, cultural expression and racial and ethnic conflict in communities in the United States and across the world. To learn more about The Center and current exhibits, visit www.civilandhumanrights.org.

In January, 2015, NSHSS will announce, in partnership with the National Center for Civil and Human Rights, an unprecedented opportunity for NSHSS scholars and Claes Nobel Educators of Distinction to apply to participate in an exclusive learning experience promoting global peace. Be sure to check your inbox for more details!
