International Seminar on Human Rights, Civil Society and The Changing Facets of Terrorism Geeta Group of Institutions

SEMINAR BACKGROUND

Terrorism is a menace that has marked its existence in most primitive of the societies and is still prevalent in contemporary world. Terrorism has spread its wings across different parts of the world. The terrorist organisations have developed with time in different aspects. Their impact is very indigenous and global at the same time. Their methods of operation and their functioning have also evolved at different levels. In this environment, the role of Law, International Organisations and that of Civil Society also need to evolve to a level where they are empowered to effectively combat this menace effectively and at the same time assure that the rights of those affected by such terrorist activity and affected while combating such activity can be protected.

Therefore, GIL endeavours to provide platform to academicians, thinkers and students from around the globe to discuss, deliberate and debate and contemplate solutions to this issue which is pertinent, relevant and imperative in contemporary society
