The promotion of Human Rights implies the elimination of barriers that impede sustainable development, such as discrimination, exclusion and violence. In this context, the rights of indigenous peoples are of particular relevance, as they have historically been marginalized and their rights to land, culture and self-determination have been the object of constant struggles and demands. In this sense, the recognition of their cultural richness and their own development model would favor their growth as an independent society. Even so, they are villages with a high rate of poverty and are affected by constant discrimination.

On the other hand, the struggle of the LGTBIQ+ communities has gained greater relevance in recent years, also favoring a change in heteronormative and patriarchal roles. As a result, same-sex marriage has been legalized in several countries, and cases of workplace harassment and domestic violence have become more visible. However, there are still significant challenges in many parts of the world in terms of equal rights and recognition of sexual and gender diversity.

Finally, various factors, such as the economic crisis and armed conflicts, have led to an increase in migratory flows and the forced displacement of people. This has become a major issue in the most important international organizations, since we are facing a great challenge: to find a balance between the adequate protection of migrants' human rights and regulating access to host societies.

In view of the above, it is undeniable the need for highly trained professionals in these issues, who can ensure the safety of the most vulnerable and promote new measures to protect them. With this in mind, TECH has designed an academic program through which the students will delve into the most relevant concepts in the area. All this, contained in a syllabus designed under the most rigorous criteria and by professionals of great prestige.
