• The third edition of the Summer School on Normativity and Reality of Human Rights continues on its task of critically addressing the interplay between norms and facts about human rights. Two issues have emerged as particularly relevant: the call for “innovation”, loosely referred to as the need to incorporate technology in any research design, and the correlated imperative of producing “data-driven” research. The summer school aims to address these issues critically, assess their practical implications, and discuss their potential impact on a research project’s theoretical frame and methodological design. 
  The third edition of the residential summer school on “Normativity and Reality of Human Rights” is organised by the Human Rights Centre “Antonio Papisca” of the University of Padova and the Human Rights Consortium of the SAS at the University of London.
