Human Rights Seminar would be held virtually this year, I couldn’t help but be disappointed and worried. The seminar would have been a week-long trip to Washington D.C., where we get to meet with several federal bodies and think tanks to research human rights cases. But can these types of conversations still be possible if these meetings are all virtual instead?
