It advances an innovative pattern of thinking that explores the intersection between art and human rights law. In recent years, art has become an important tool for engagement on several human rights issues. In view of its potency, and yet potential to be a danger when misused, this book seeks to articulate the use of arts in the human rights discourse in its different forms. Chapters cover how music, photography, literature, photojournalism, soap opera, commemorations, sculpting and theatre can be used as an expression of human rights. This book demonstrates how arts have become a formidable expression of thoughts and a means of articulating reality in a form that simplifies truth and congregates resolve to advance change.Arts, research, innovation and society,2626-7683Human rightsAfricaHuman rights in artEthnologyAfricaGlobalizationMarketsAfrican Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411030Emerging Markets/Globalizationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/525010Human Rightshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19020Human rightsHuman rights in art.EthnologyGlobalization.Markets.African Culture.Emerging Markets/Globalization.Human Rights.323.096Adeola Romolaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtNyarko Michael Gyanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtOkeowo Adebayoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtViljoen Fransedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910483705303321The Art of Human Rights2844580UNINA
