Project PI/s
Rachel Killean

 

Project Title
Locating 'Human Dignity' in Cambodia

 

Awarding Bodies
British Academy, Humanities and Social Sciences Tackling Global Challenges Programme 2020

Project Overview
This project aims to contribute to a locally informed and culturally relevant understanding of foundational human rights concepts in Cambodia, by locating and interrogating the notion of ‘human dignity’ in the Cambodian context. Although ‘human dignity’ is considered a foundational human rights concept, in practice it does not easily translate into diverse cultural settings or languages. Centring the case study of Cambodia enables an interrogation as to how ‘human dignity’ is constructed, conceptualised and negotiated in a context where no direct or ‘official’ translation exists.
